Description from the manager
Very well located, just a couple miles north of the charming, historic, upscale Healdsburg Plaza, is your wonderful Getaway with close access to the Hwy 101. This special home rests at the âgatewayâ of the famed Dry Creek Valley wine growing region, with dozens of world class wineries, and tasting rooms, and Lake Sonoma Recreational Area just a few minutes further west.
This beautifully renovated 1950âs charming and romantic bungalow, with central heat/AC, has new dual pane windows, oak hardwood flooring, crown molding, and a fabulous Great Room with dining, living, and kitchen areas. At the far end of the house, two lovely bedroo...ms with comfy queen beds, and a third guest room/den with privacy curtains, is just off the Great Room with a new deluxe queen sleeper sofa, the entertainment centerâs 42â Sharp HD TV and Samsung DVD player, vaulted ceilings and a custom, vintage light. A well appointed and beautiful centrally located full bath features a jetted soaking tub with a glass-doored, tiled shower above, and unlimited hot water provided by the new âon-demandâ system. The denâs side door opens to a small inside covered porch and the laundry room and 1-car garage combo.
This property is fully fenced; in the front, by a 6â high redwood fence and 10â wide gate, deer fencing secures the sides and up the hill. A dozen mature redwood trees line the inside of the fence and provide a âbreakfrontâ from Dry Creek Road, allowing for a beautiful interplay of light and shadow, as the sun shines through, adding a touch of magic to this special place. A night-lit railed stairway leads up the hill, behind the house, to the large âlookoutâ spa deck with a new 6-person hydrotherapy spa, an outdoor table set for 4 and views through the trees to the vineyards beyond.
The front yard includes a large concrete patio with outdoor table and seating for 8 which transitions to the fern grotto and garden side yard, also with seating area, Webber propane grill, and a small Buddha sits on the fence and filling this space with serenity and tranquility for a little Wine Country âNirvanaâ. You can also enjoy âwatching the grapes growâ in the boutique vineyard next door. Parking is provided by the 1-car garage, as well as plenty of room for parking in the drive. The laundry facility includes a Kenmore Elite Heavy Duty washer and dryer set, a sink, iron and board, and a convenient half bath.
Now letâs enter your âhome away from it allâ! Through the lovely front entry, you are welcomed by the Great Room with dining, living, and kitchen areas. The formal dining room has a lovely dining set for 6, and a beautiful chandelier lighting the table. Just ânext doorâ, is the living area with a new comfy deluxe queen sleeper sofa, a couple of arm chairs and a large, square, custom-made wood and wrought iron coffee table. With this home warmed by central heat, also enjoy the romantic flicker of candlelight from the decorative fireplaceâs candelabra.
The Great Room is completed by a fabulous Gourmet Kitchen, sure to please the most discriminating chef. Granite countertops and backsplash, abundant underlit oak cabinetry, a built-in workstation with Wifi, and a counter seating area for the âbackseat chefsâ to contribute to the âchicken soupâ, all add a special, luxurious quality to this culinary âcreation stationâ. The heart of this excellent and well equipped kitchen is the professional stainless steel Viking 4-burner gas range with a convection feature for the oven and downdraft venting.
Other new stainless steel appliances include a Jenn-Air fridge over freezer, a Panasonic microwave, a GE Profile dishwasher, a large double sink with a shutter-blinded box window overlooking the front patio area, and a custom kitchen faucet with pullout wand. Additional amenities include a Cuisinart toaster and coffee maker, plenty of pots and pans, dishware, glassware, flatware, knives, and all the other necessities.
As referenced, at the back of the home and just off the Great Room, is the third âguest roomâ/den with entertainment area including a rustic bar height table and stools, and the central hallway leads to the full bath and the first and second guest rooms. The two guest rooms have large dual-paned windows to let the beauty of outside, in and with drapes drawn, you can enjoy sleeping in or âday nappingâ. Both bedrooms have luxurious queen-sized sleigh beds with bedroom accessories, and luscious linens and bedding.
The Dry Creek Getaway is a great âhome baseâ for enjoying Healdsburg and its 3 wine growing regions, the Dry Creek, Alexander, and Russian River Valleys. Many more activities are also available, including canoeing, kayaking, or fishing on the Russian River, Lake Sonoma Recreation Area, marina and boat rentals, the Armstrong Old Growth Redwood Preserve just off of River Road on the way to the Sonoma Coast, and for a day trip, you can also explore the Silverado Wine Trail.Read more

Charming...but right on Dry Creek Road...a little noisy.
Left on 02/09/2012 for a stay in January 2012
Beautifully appointed and well equipped home. Immaculately clean and well maintained. Really 2 bedrooms; third 'bedroom' is open family room but would work. Home directly on Dry Creek Road making it a bit noisy. Excellent location for wine tasting and 'restauranting'. Great kitchen, fully equipped.
