Private mountain estate in the heart of Wine Country. Tucked among towering redwoods and firs between Napa and Sonoma valleys, just minutes from Calistoga, this 7+/- acre sanctuary in unincorporated Sonoma County pairs deep seclusion with turnkey modern infrastructure. The 2 bedroom, 2 bath main residence (1,560+/- sq ft) has been extensively remodeled over the past four years and features a wood-burning fireplace, home office, and panoramic mountain and hill views. New roof with 30-year warranty (buyer to verify transferability), fully owned 2024 solar system, and fully electric operation with PG&E service and generator backup hookup (generator excluded from sale). Beyond the main home: a detached guest house/studio ideal for guests, extended family, or remote work (buyer to verify permits), plus a greenhouse, hen house, large metal shed/garage workshop, and a prolific apple tree. Year-round Humbug Creek runs along the lower edge of the property with direct access, a seasonal waterfall, and private hiking trails through the redwoods. Domestic water is drawn from the creek through a dedicated treatment system above the home (water use rights and system - buyer to verify); septic on site. Total privacy - nearest neighbor 250+ feet - yet approx. 12 minutes to Safeway and Oliver's Market, 19 minutes to Kaiser and Montgomery Village, and minutes from Calistoga's celebrated wineries and restaurants. Adjacent 4.7+/- acre parcel with its own well also available - expand to 11.8+/- acres total. A rare, self-sufficient Wine Country retreat. Schedule your private showing today.
