Private Retreat | Bocce Ball | Putting Green | BBQ | House in Sonoma
3 Bedroom House in Sonoma
Summary:
Relax and unwind at The Specht Ranch, a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch home in the Sonoma Valley. With an open floor plan, redwood beam ceilings, a large modern kitchen, and amazing amenities including a fire pit, bocce ball, putting green, and backyard space, this creekside retreat is perfect for friends looking to enjoy wine-country, or anyone looking for a peaceful escape near Sonoma Plaza
The Space:
The interior of this California-contemporary ranch serves as a gallery for living, where clean lines meet a vibrant collection of modern abstract paintings and hand-blown glass installations. The heart of the home is a luminous, open-concept Great Room, anchored by a streamlined kitchen. Here, stainless steel appliances and minimalist cabinetry frame a central island illuminated by contemporary pendant lighting—the perfect social hub for four to gather with a bottle of local Chardonnay while the chef prepares a meal.
Tucked away from the social center, the private wing offers a composed environment for rest. The primary suite is a light-filled sanctuary, featuring a King-sized bed dressed in luxury linens and a private television. This retreat includes an ensuite bath with double vanities, a glass-enclosed shower, and a deep jetted tub. The two additional guest bedrooms maintain this refined aesthetic, each outfitted with Queen-sized beds and luxury linens, sharing a well-appointed second bathroom that reflects the home’s contemporary minimalist design.
The transition to the outdoors is seamless; a massive sliding glass door in the living area disappears to merge the interior with a covered, heated outdoor lounge. This alfresco "living room" is designed for long Sonoma evenings, featuring a pergola-shaded dining area and a sleek, modern gas fire table that provides a clean-burning glow for late-night conversation.
Beyond the patio, the expansive lot offers a curated balance of activity and reprieve. Guests can practice their short game on the private putting green, engage in a spirited match on the bocce court, or find a moment of stillness in a hammock suspended near the lush greenery of Nathanson Creek. The landscaping is a thoughtful tapestry of native California flora, flowering shrubs, and citrus trees, with towering redwoods providing dappled shade and a sense of secluded privacy.
Guest Access:
Guests have full access to the entire home and grounds, including the outdoor kitchen/barbecue area, fire pit, bocce ball court, and putting green. The paved driveway provides convenient on-site parking.
Please note that the indoor garage is not available for guests. There is also one room within the home that is locked and guests do not have access to it.
The Neighborhood:
Located in Sonoma Valley, this property offers the perfect blend of country charm and city convenience. Close to local schools, shopping, and the Sonoma Plaza, the home provides a peaceful, private setting while keeping you near the heart of Sonoma.
Getting Around:
A car is recommended for exploring Sonoma and the surrounding wine country. Parking is available in the driveway, as street parking is not permitted on Specht Road. Most key destinations are just a short and easy drive from the property.
