Tucked into the coveted landscape of West Sonoma County, just minutes from Occidental and the Sonoma Coast, this enchanting 2.5-acre retreat offers a rare opportunity to live immersed in nature while staying close to some of the region’s most beloved destinations. A true gardener’s paradise, the grounds unfold like a curated sanctuary. Meandering pathways lead through artful stonework, multiple stunning natural outcroppings and a seasonal, custom-designed cascading stream. Over a 30 year period the gardens were created with a master garden builder professionally trained in stone setting, aesthetic pruning, pathway and watercourse building. Towering bamboo, vibrant tropical blooms, sculptural Japanese maples, and mature fruit trees create a lush, ever-evolving landscape. A variety of curated seating areas are woven throughout the grounds, including a serene setting alongside the waterfall, a central fire pit for evening gatherings, and a dedicated vantage point for sunset views. These spaces invite you to experience the gardens from a range of moods and moments throughout the day. Extensive landscape lighting highlights the property’s pathways and showcases the trees with subtle up lighting creating both beauty and functionality after dark. The 1,852 sq ft, 2-bedroom, 2-1/2 bath home is filled with natural light and designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living. Expansive windows frame the surrounding greenery, creating a constant connection to the outdoors, while a sunlit solarium offers the perfect space for morning coffee, reading, or year-round plant cultivation. A detached, fully insulated, 2-car garage provides flexibility for a studio or workshop. Multiple outbuildings offer additional storage capacity or other creative uses. RV parking with hookups adds convenience for guests or extended stays. Ideally located near the vibrant communities of Sebastopol and Occidental, with easy access to the Sonoma Coast, this property captures the essence of West County living: peaceful, creative, and deeply connected to nature.
