About This Home
No showings until Thursday May 14th. Set in a desirable enclave known for privacy and charm between the City of Sonoma and Glen Ellen, at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, The Brookside Orchard House is a rare Sonoma retreat on an extraordinary Creekside parcel. Fronted by traditional grape-stake fencing, mature trees, and lush gardens, this private single-level property offers a seamless blend of relaxed sophistication, natural beauty, and effortless indoor-outdoor living. Thoughtfully renovated, the residence features open, light-filled interiors designed to flow beautifully into the surrounding landscape. With no interior thresholds, the home offers easy circulation, clean contemporary lines, and comfortable single-level living. Large glass doors open from the main living spaces to patios and verdant garden views, creating a natural extension of the home outdoors. The primary bath includes a curb less walk-in shower, adding to the home's comfort. At the heart of the grounds, a 16' x 36' pool with substantial decking offers a private setting for sunny Sonoma afternoons and memorable entertaining. Olive trees and orchard plantings frame the pool terrace, while mature hedging and trees create a peaceful sense of seclusion. Elevated above Sonoma Creek, the backyard enjoys a serene woodland backdrop and exceptional privacy. One of the property's compelling spaces is the indoor-outdoor entertaining pavilion, converted from the original two-car garage. Featuring exposed beams and a 10' x 8' glass roll-up door, the pavilion opens to the patio, Breeo Smokeless Fire pit seating area, outdoor BBQ area and kitchen garden. Versatile and inviting, this space is ideal for entertaining, lounging, studio use, guest overflow, or may be adapted back to garage use. A separate 10' x 12' garden studio adds flexibility for a home office, fitness room, or creative retreat. The home is served by city water, with a private well dedicated to landscape irrigation. Since 2014, the property has undergone a comprehensive restoration with significant upgrades, including coper plumbing and PEX-A, modern lighting fully upgraded throughout, energy-efficient roofing, solar power, advanced whole-house water filtration, a tankless hot water system, whole-house fans, and modern HVAC. Rarely does a property bring together such privacy, usability, and connection to the land. The Brookside Orchard House is a distinctive offering where home, garden and gathering spaces come together in one.
