Map & Owner's Profile
Exquisite Wine Country Cottage
Year Purchased: 2006
Why the Owner Chose Kenwood
Kenwood is one of my favorite towns in Sonoma County. The scenic corrider between Sonoma and Santa Rosa is one of the most beautiful in the county and inspired Jack London to dub it the Valley of the Moon. Kenwood has a small town rural charm, yet is near fine restaurants, golf, and world class wineries. It is also one of the friendliest towns I've ever encountered and a great central location for exploring the Wine Country!
The Unique Benefits at this House
Chardonnay Cottage is exquisitely furnished and extremely comfortable - for a couple or a family. Every detail has been thoughtfully added to make a stay here a memorable one. Beds are plush pillow top, linens are 600 thread count, the kitchen is fully equipped, the gardens are tended weekly and include fruit trees, roses and lavendar. There is a picnic table and barbecue, and a wonderful general store just outside the back gate. A separate office with wireless internet enables you to stay in touch, and bedrooms and baths at opposite ends of the cottage allow for privacy.
Owner's Map of Kenwood
I moved to Sonoma County in 1996 and am a real estate agent with Alain Pinel Realtors. Originally from New York, I lived in Bermuda for 30 years before discovering the Wine Country and, with my dogs, cats, birds and horses, would find it very hard to ever leave.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home (& neighbours) with us. We had a wonderful time. It was a great end to a fantastic holiday. The kids loved the yard and chasing their newfound pet lizard around. Your home has everything anyone could want for a stay away from home. Sonoma will be forever a special place in our hearts and we hope to be able to return some day. For now we will be telling all our friends it is the place to visit. Thanks once again.

Having left our beloved wine country some years ago, we came back to stay in this wonderful Wine Coutry Cottage and had the time of our lives. It is bright, lovingly furnished, and wonderfully laid out. Superb for a large family or even three couples. It is located in the heart of one of the most beautiful areas of Sonoma County, completely private even though shopping for your wine and cheese and nibbles is only a short walk from your cottage door. In minutes you can be at wineries, or in Sonoma or Santa Rosa. Napa Valley is only a short ride over one of the most scenic roads in America. What a warm and wonderful experience. We miss living in the wine country as we did for many years but, you CAN go home again. The cottage is a delight and we can't wait to come back to our vacation "home".

We LOVED our stay here! Not only was the decor lovely and inviting, but the location was superb! So close to wineries,restaurants, and all local attractions. Although it has a fabulous kitchen, right outside the back gate is a divine market where you can buy all kinds of goodies...Much easier than cooking!!! We cannot wait to return!

We enjoyed our stay in the Chardonnay Cottage very much. The house is absolutely beautiful and very comfortable. We found the house equipped with every little thing we needed for a week stay of 4 adults and a baby, and much more. The garden is beautiful and peaceful and we enjoyed it as well. The cottage location is perfect, close to everything we wanted to visit in the Napa and Sonoma valleys, and minutes walk from a grocery store, a coffee place and a restaurant.
