Gracious Bennett Valley Estate home secluded on 7 blissfully private acres of colorful landscaping, majestic Oaks, olive and fruit trees, and 5 acres planted to Pinot Noir grapes. Enter the private gated drive, lined with Crepe Myrtle trees, to experience the serene setting with views to Bennett Ridge and Annadale State Park. The front walkway leads through a portico entry and foyer into an elegant, single level 4,207 sq. ft. +/- home with polished hardwood floors, dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows and open beamed vaulted ceilings in the entry and living rooms, and spacious, relaxed comfort throughout.
The large formal dining room offers a fireplace, fully functional butler's pantry, and views to the lush landscaping of rhodendrens, azaleas and ferns. Exquisite windows and doors in the dining room lead to the terrace and the gorgeous in-ground pool below.
The butler's pantry, with wet bar, ice maker, and refrigerator, adjacent to the dining room, is also accessible to the large and commodious Great Room, with its own fire place and half bath.
The well equipped kitchen offers two walk in pantries, induction cook top, mahogany cabinetry, generous marble counters, peninsula seating as well as a good sized "breakfast" dining area. The two sky lights provide additional natural light. This large, pleasant kitchen invites good cooking.
A large primary bedroom offers beautiful windows and glass doors to the serene outdoors, and a most magnificent, well appointed bathroom and closet/dressing room suite. There are three other bedrooms: two share a full jack and jill bath and one has an ensuite full bath. The laundry room is conveniently accessed from the same hall. All have the beautiful, gleaming wood floors.
Access to the five acre vineyard is through a separate gated drive. The vineyard area includes a large steel beamed barn with a loft and a 5,000 gallon water storage tank and water well. The Pinot Noir Pommard grapevines were planted in 2001. Wine made with these grapes has been the recipient of Gold Medals from the Sonoma County Harvest Faire.
