About This Home
Once known as The Raven", this distinguished Heritage Home is a rare, once-in-a-generation offering in the heart of downtown Petaluma. Just moments from the dining, shopping, and entertainment that make the city so beloved, the residence offers more than 3,300 square feet of living space, grand in scale, rich in character, and timeless in appeal. Nearly 140 years of preserved Victorian architecture lend the home an unmistakable sense of history, while thoughtful updates including 200-amp electrical service and three separate forced-air furnaces provide the comfort and convenience expected for modern living. Designed for both everyday enjoyment and memorable entertaining, the property invites indoor-outdoor living at its best. Picture a garden party where custom-built cellar doors open to the full basement below, revealing generous storage, a modest full bathroom, and an expansive game room ready for gatherings, hobbies, or retreat. Adding to the home's practicality, the driveway extends through the property from Kentucky Street to Telephone Alley, offering convenient access from both the front and rear. Review the photos, explore its history, and plan your visit. This is a unique opportunity to become the next steward of one of downtown Petaluma's most compelling historic homes and to write the next chapter of The Raven.
