Glorious and picturesque mini estate with swimming and boating pond, redwood grove, orchard, hiking trails, all set in a private sunny meadow. Gourmet, oversized country kitchen, antique mantle on wood burning fireplace and Parisian antiques complete the magazine featured restored 1850's farmhouse. Step outside to a cozy covered porch with upholstered wicker furniture and large entertaining deck with hot tub and a view that takes your breath away.
In counterpoint and worthy of Architectural Digest is the new modern master bedroom with Italian metal windows in wonderful contrast to the first growth redwood floors salvaged from a local Sonoma County Barn. Oversized beams that support the suspended ceiling and asymmetrical skylight creates the feeling that you are sleeping in a Redwood Groove in a W hotel setting. All this faces onto the pond, enormous redwoods and bathed in full sun. Fireplace, bath and separate shower plus awarding winning designer touches.
This home is a treasure. Come experience STILL LIGHT POND'S 4 private acres surrounded by an 80 acre cow pasture with breathtaking views. Any guest will be transformed by the magic of this home, this land and the setting is truly heirloom. One mile from downtown Occidental, six miles to the Coast or the Russian River!!

Idyllic farm charm designer cottage!

My family stayed here for four days while on a retreat. The house was clean, beautifully designed and lovingly decorated. The grounds were so idyllic each angle looked like a page out of a magazine. It is a very tranquil setting. The property is located 1.8 miles away from Occidental-a quaint North Cal town with a robust organic farmers market and several great restaurants. The only small improvement I would have made would be to make the A/V equipment easier to use- we tried once and gave up. Since we were on a retreat anyway, no TV was probably a good thing, and we had our own iPods. The boat was not on the pond and the wood burner in the tent cabin were not working, but fishing in the pond swinging on the swing and picking blackberries were delightful pursuits for our children. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, tourists without a car, people with disabilities, sightseeing, pet owners, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children.
