Maison sur colline 4CH à Sebastopol avec jacuzzi, poêle à bois & salle de jeux, chiens acceptés

Summary:

Bring the whole family — and up to four dogs — to a Sebastopol hilltop home built for the cozy months: a wood-burning stove in the great room and a private spa you can heat any day of the year under the redwoods. Seat up to 10 at the dining table and 6 to 8 more at the living-room table for Thanksgiving or holiday dinners, send the kids to the game room and upstairs den on rainy afternoons, and end the night at the fire bowl or behind the telescope. Sleeps 8 in four bedrooms, 3,500 sq ft. Marimar Estate 0.7 mi away.



The Space:

This is the kind of hilltop Sebastopol home where a winter weekend writes itself: espresso and waffles by the wood stove, a foosball tournament while the rain comes through, a long dinner in the dining room, and a late soak in the spa as the redwoods go dark overhead.



The great room sets the tone — sofas grouped around the wood-burning stove (operating instructions posted right there), a turntable and record collection for whoever picks the soundtrack, and puzzles plus board games stacked for every age.



Cook, snack, and feast without leaving — the chef's kitchen comes loaded with an espresso machine, KitchenAid mixer, electric fondue set, popcorn popper, hand-turned pasta machine, panini press, and waffle maker, plus pantry staples ready when you arrive. The dining table seats up to 10, and a round table in the living room seats 6 to 8 more, so a multi-generation Thanksgiving, a holiday dinner, or a big birthday fits across two rooms. Carry dessert to the sofas by the fire.



Rainy afternoon? Kids sprint to the game room for foosball, basketball, cornhole, giant Jenga, or a craft-table project, then pile into the upstairs den with beanbags and a big TV. A laptop-friendly desk with dual monitors and fast Wi-Fi lets one adult work remotely while everyone else plays.



OUTDOOR LIVING

The private spa can be heated any day of the year at no charge — soak as the redwoods catch the last light, then dry off by the fire bowl with Adirondack chairs and string lights overhead. A patio heater keeps the wraparound deck comfortable past sunset, and the covered porch is the spot for morning coffee or an evening with the telescope and binoculars — hilltop skies here get properly dark. Multiple terraces, three outdoor dining tables that seat 8 each, an outdoor ping-pong table, a gas barbecue, and hammocks strung between the trees round out the grounds, and the fully enclosed yard gives kids and up to four dogs a safe place to run. The 20×40 pool waits for spring (heating available April–October).

Guest Access:

Warm up in the private spa, claim a seat by the wood-burning stove, and set dinner for up to 10 in the dining room — the whole home is yours, with up to four dogs welcome in the fenced yard. The wood stove, the fire bowl, game room, upstairs den, and a quiet desk for remote work are all included. Punch in the keypad code at the door and pull onto the larger driveway.



The Neighborhood:

Nestled in Sebastopol's peaceful hills, you're surrounded by redwood forests and just 0.7 miles from Marimar Estate Vineyards — harvest and crush season (September–October) is the liveliest time to taste, and winter tasting rooms are quieter and more personal. Square Peg Winery (1.5 mi), Freeman Vineyard (1.9 mi), and Iron Horse Vineyards (2.3 mi, hilltop tastings) are all close. The Barlow marketplace (2.3 mi) — tasting rooms, breweries, and restaurants — is the easy answer for a rainy-day outing and lights up for the holidays. Fall brings apple stands and pumpkin patches along the west county backroads; winter brings big-tree walks at Armstrong Redwoods and storm watching at Bodega Bay, each about 25 minutes away. For dining, The Altamont General Store (2.3 mi) serves breakfast and lunch, Howard Station Cafe (2.3 mi) is a local favorite, and Willow Wood Market Cafe (2.5 mi) provides farm-fresh meals. Stock up on groceries at Bohemian Market (2.3 mi) or grab tacos at El Mariachi Cafe (2.3 mi). Your dogs will love Ragle Ranch Dog Park (3.8 mi), and West County Regional Trail (3.5 mi) is good for walking and biking between storms.



Getting Around:

Sebastopol is about 70 minutes from San Francisco via 101 and Highway 12 — a quick drive into the apple orchards and vineyards of west Sonoma. You'll have parking for up to 6 vehicles on the property's larger driveway. A car makes exploring west Sonoma easy — apple farms, coastal redwoods, and the Russian River are all a short drive away.



Other Things to Note:

Operating instructions for the wood-burning stove are posted in the main living room. The dining room also has a small propane stove; central heat and the living-room wood stove do the real work. The private spa can be heated any day of the year at no charge. The pool is unheated November through March; pool heating is available April–October only, must be requested at least 2 days in advance for consecutive days ($150 for the first calendar day and $75 for each consecutive calendar day after), and may not be set above 88 degrees — by reserving this home you agree to that limit, or you may be charged an additional fee. This hilltop home stays naturally cool in the redwood canopy, with heating for chilly nights and limited air conditioning on warmer days. The primary renter must be 25 or older. Up to four dogs (80 lbs each max) are welcome in the enclosed yard — please keep them leashed on nearby trails. The dining table seats up to 10 and the round living-room table 6 to 8, with three outdoor tables for 8 each; overnight occupancy is capped at 8 per permit.



The home shares a well system with nearby neighbors — common in this area. From time to time, our water vendor may visit the property for routine pump maintenance. These stops are quick and do not require access inside the home; the vendor will not interrupt your stay.
