House in Sonoma, California
OVERVIEW
Sonoma Heated Pool Home with Valley Views near Plaza Wineries
Slide open the glass doors and let the scent of lavender drift in from your private pool deck. Watch the Sonoma hills turn golden as you float in the heated pool, wine glass in hand. This updated 3-bedroom home sleeps 6 with room to spread out — two living areas, gourmet kitchen, shaded dining pergola. Just 10 minutes from Sonoma Plaza's 20+ walkable tasting rooms and farm-to-table restaurants. Your wine country escape starts the moment you step into this sun-drenched sanctuary.
A single-story ranch where clean lines, neutral tones, and walls of glass blur the boundary between indoors and out. At 2,563 square feet, this three-bedroom home offers generous space to unwind just minutes from Sonoma Plaza.
Two distinct living spaces await — the main room with cream sofas, a 55-inch TV, and glass doors opening to the pool deck, and a second sitting room warmed by a gas fireplace. The gourmet kitchen features white cabinetry, granite counters, a gas range, French door refrigerator, and wine fridge for your Sonoma finds. A peninsula with bar seating keeps the cook in the conversation. Choose the formal table for eight or the casual table for six — both perfect for lingering over local wines.
OUTDOOR LIVING
Your private backyard centers on a heated pool open May through October, mountain views peeking through mature trees. A covered pergola with string lights creates an enchanting dining space for ten. A gas grill stands ready for al fresco dinners, and lounge chairs beckon poolside amid lavender and drought-tolerant plantings.

Slip into the private heated pool, then move dinner out under the covered dining pergola as the mountain view holds onto the last light. You've got the whole home, with a gas fireplace, a balcony off the upper level, and a contemporary open kitchen at the center. Punch in the keypad code at the door; up to two cars park outside (no street parking).
You're perfectly positioned in a quiet residential neighborhood just minutes from everything that makes Sonoma special. Walk 0.3 miles to Dive Bar Coffee for your morning espresso, or drive 10 minutes to Sonoma Plaza where over 20 tasting rooms await — from Three Sticks Wines in a historic adobe to Sigh's dedicated sparkling wine bar. Picazo Cafe (0.7 mi) and il Fuoco Pizza (0.8 mi) offer casual dining nearby, while the Plaza delivers romantic options like the girl & the fig. Stock up at El Verano Market (0.6 mi) or drive 8 minutes to Whole Foods. Ernie Smith Park with its dog area is just 0.3 miles away. The Montini Open Space Preserve trailhead (1.7 mi) leads to panoramic valley views. This is authentic Sonoma — where locals walk to Valley Swim Club (0.3 mi) and visitors discover hidden gems like Berthoud Vineyards (0.5 mi). You're close enough to enjoy the Plaza's energy yet tucked away for poolside tranquility.
Sonoma is about an hour from San Francisco via 101 and Highway 37 — a scenic drive across San Pablo Bay wetlands into the Sonoma Valley. Your driveway accommodates 2 vehicles with no street parking available. A car makes Sonoma Valley easy to explore — tasting rooms, restaurants, and parks run up and down Highway 12. For tasting days, plan a designated driver or book a rideshare ahead — it makes the whole day easier.
The home stays naturally cool thanks to the air conditioning system — perfect for warm Sonoma summers. As a no-shoes property, you'll find the gray tile floors pristine and comfortable. The heated pool operates seasonally from May through October, weather permitting. Take advantage of the wine fridge to chill your Plaza tasting room finds. The smart lock makes late arrivals stress-free — no hunting for keys after a long dinner at the girl & the fig. The primary renter must be 25 or older. While the home offers high-speed WiFi, you'll likely spend more time by the pool than online. Pro tip: claim your poolside lounge chair early for the best mountain views through the trees.
