3 Beds ⋅ 3 Baths ⋅ 2,310 SqFt. ⋅ 226114036 MLS

Some properties are simply homes. Others offer a way of life. Tucked beneath a canopy of majestic oaks on ten private acres, this beautifully renovated historic farmhouse is a place where mornings begin overlooking the vines, gardens fill the table, and evenings end with a bottle pulled from your own cellar. Nearly six acres of producing, dry farmed vineyard planted with Merlot, Tempranillo, and Mourvedre sweep across the landscape, creating the unmistakable romance of California wine country. Perhaps most captivating is the rare root cellar, an extraordinary connection to the property's past and a natural companion to the vineyard. Cool, authentic, and full of possibility, it invites visions of aging wine, storing the harvest, or creating an intimate tasting experience just steps from home. Life here follows the land. Wander through a fully irrigated 3,000 square foot vegetable garden, gather fruit from mature trees, pass fragrant rose gardens, or follow the seasonal creek toward a tranquil pond. Covered front and rear porches and a travertine patio frame views across the vineyard and rolling oak studded hills, setting the stage for morning coffee, long dinners under the stars, and wine at sunset. Inside, nearly a century of character has been thoughtfully reimagined through an extensive five year renovation. A dramatic river rock fireplace with wood burning stove anchors the great room, while the beautifully appointed kitchen blends farmhouse warmth with a built in Wolf gas cooktop, custom cedar hood, granite countertops, farmhouse sink, and impressive walk in butler's pantry with glass French doors. Plantation shutters, crown molding, luxury plank flooring, abundant natural light, and carefully selected finishes bring warmth and refinement throughout. Main level primary suite opens directly outdoors and offers a spa inspired bath with freestanding soaking tub and porcelain tiled walk in shower with dual rain heads. A poultry barn, forest style horse stable, equipment shop, owned 9 kilowatt solar system, RV parking possibilities, expansive usable acreage, and room for a future ADU complete this remarkable offering. Less than ten minutes from shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences, it feels remarkably removed from the world beyond. Vineyard, homestead, equestrian retreat, or private country estate, this is a rare opportunity to cultivate something of your own and live a California country lifestyle that is increasingly difficult to find.
