The front porch is designed to transition guests from outdoors seamlessly. To the left there is a formal living room with cathedral ceilings, exposed beams and rich but not overwhelming wood surfaces. The south wall is banked with windows to invite the outdoors in but also allows ample placement of furnishings. The focal point of the room is the marble wrapped fire place which lends a feeling of casual elegance.

The formal dining area is on a raised section of the room near the fireplace where you can look over the gardens through the bay windows at the rear of the home.

To the right of the entry area of the home is a separate family room with a dining area that overlooks the outdoor dining area at the rear of the home and its spacious clear heart redwood decking. Looking out the family room bay windows the other direction is the spacious orchard and vegetable garden area with its raised bed planters.

A bright, modern, well-appointed galley style kitchen links the three dining areas of the home.

Upstairs you find a foyer style hallway that divides the master suite from the guest bedrooms and bath. All of the upstairs rooms provide great views of the grounds and views of the Dry Creek Valley from the master suite.

The Grounds

The home is perfectly oriented on the lot to optimize light, eliminate noise and provide the feeling of a private resort right in town. At the street there is a grove of hundred foot redwood trees that serve as a buffer to the roadway. Just inside the redwood grove is a spacious garden area with raised bed planters, fruit trees and trellised kiwi. There is plenty of room left to add a bocce ball court, sports courts or build a guest house up to 850 square feet by local building codes.

The rear of the home has 1600 square feet of clear heart redwood decking and a gazebo dining area. That decking leads to a banquette style seating area made from the same priceless clear heart redwood. That final level of seating area is at the edge of the full size swimming pool. The pool area overlooks another section of the back yard and it theme areas.

Energy Saving

The home has very low operating costs. It could easily be converted to a net zero operating cost home. The water comes from a private well located on the property thus avoiding costly water bills. The home is not connected to the costly public sewer system. There are deciduous ornamental trees surrounding the home to let in light in the winter and provide shade in the summer. There are highly efficient heating and cooling systems and energy efficient products used throughout the home.

The Area

The home is located on a private lane off of Grove Street in Healdsburg just a block from the downtown area. This is a highly sought after area of Healdsburg. The home is just a block from the downtown business district. The area is growing quickly and the projected home price for the new “Rossi Home” currently under construction makes this home a bargain.

The home is also near the northern trail head to our Healdsburg trail network which leads you directly to the SMART train depot. That same trail is wide and stretches from the tip of the Dry Creek Valley to downtown Santa Rosa.

The Shop

Attached to the home is a 1400 square foot shop with high ceilings and high clearance roll up entry doors. This area provides a multitude of options due to the mixed use zoning of this property.
