Modern Panoramic Hillside Escape

Summary:

Escape to Mountcrest Ranch, a private hillside retreat in the heart of Sonoma County's beautiful Bennett Valley. Surrounded by rolling meadows, heritage oak trees, and abundant wildlife, this peaceful ranch offers the perfect setting for family gatherings, wine country getaways, and relaxing retreats.



The Space:

Perched on a hillside overlooking the ranch, the home is designed to take full advantage of its spectacular setting. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the living spaces with natural light while framing panoramic views in every direction. The interior features a clean, modern aesthetic with comfortable gathering spaces for relaxing after a day of exploring Sonoma County.

Step outside to a spacious deck where you can enjoy morning coffee, afternoon wildlife sightings, or evening sunsets from the hot tub.



The property features a newly renovated 4-bedroom, 3-bath home with expansive decks, a hot tub, a seasonal pond with a dock, and breathtaking 270-degree views of the surrounding valley and countryside.



Sleeping Arrangements:

With the inclusion of sleeper sofas, the home can sleep up to 14 guests. There are 4 bedrooms, and additional sleeping options are spread throughout the house, including:

• 1 double sleeper sofa off the kitchen

• 1 double sleeper sofa in the separate suite

• 1 single sleeper in the second bedroom

• 1 single sleeper in the atrium off the primary bedroom



Please note: while the double sleeper sofas are perfect for kids or smaller guests to share, they may feel a bit snug for two full-grown adults. We’ve thoughtfully set the home’s pricing to reflect this, so you can enjoy the space with flexibility for groups of all sizes. Air mattresses can also be provided upon request—just let us know ahead of time!



KINDLY NOTE: WE HAVE A RENTAL AGREEMENT THAT OUTLINES OUR HOUSE RULES, WHICH WE'LL SEND AFTER BOOKING FOR YOUR REVIEW AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.



The Neighborhood:

Mountcrest Ranch is located just outside the city limits of Santa Rosa which makes it both convenient and serene. You are 2 minutes from Bennett Valley Golf Course, 5 minutes from Whole Foods, 15 minutes from Graton Casino, 20 minutes from the town of Sonoma, 30 minutes from Calistoga, and only 1 hour drive from San Francisco. But you will feel miles away from everything.



Getting Around:

While there is no public transportation serving the property, guests will enjoy easy access to Hwy 101 to San Francisco and Bennett Valley Road connecting you to the rest of Sonoma.



Other Things to Note:

Mountcrest Ranch includes a seasonal pond with dock, acres of meadowland, heritage oak trees, three natural springs, access to Taylor Mountain Regional Park affording miles of hiking, and unobstructed views of the surrounding valley and Mt. Saint Helena to the north. Two historic barns are home to a family of barn owls. Deer and turkey roam the property along with other wildlife.



As the sun sets, extensive outdoor lighting brings the property to life, illuminating the historic barns, majestic oak trees, walking paths, and pond area for a truly magical evening atmosphere.



The house is also equipped with central heating and air conditioning. However, please note that we limit the temperature settings using a Nest thermostat between 69-75 degrees.
