About this property

Private Wine Country Estate with Panoramic Views, Tennis Court - TOT Cert 450N

Step onto the terrace for a massage with one of our recommended masseurs or take an afternoon swim in in the 50 foot pool-with-a-view and you will feel like you are in your own private resort. Recently featured in California Homes and Design Magazine*, Lavender Hill is a luxury hide-away in the Wine country available year-round for discerning guests. If you and your group appreciate design, setting and amenities a cut above the standard vacation rental property, you will not be disappointed.

The property consists of a contemporary three bedroom, two and one-half bath main house, plus a Craftsman style one bedroom, one bath guest house, on a ridge-top location with spectacular 280-degree views of the vineyards of Sonoma Valley. There are five very private, fenced and gated acres, much of them level or gently sloping with mature oak and olive trees--ideal for relaxing with your family or friends.

The large, well-appointed gourmet kitchen has a six-burner Viking range, two convection ovens, a wine refrigerator, and concrete/steel counters. There is formal indoor dining for twelve people, casual outdoor dining for 12+.

The spacious master bedroom boasts a separate stereo system, television w/ DVD/VCR, satellite service w/HBO. The master bath has a two-person, Japanese-style soaking tub and a detached slate shower w/ skylight. New in 2008: Hardcourt Tennis court w/ basketball hoop.

All bedrooms have Frette bathrobes, 620 thread-count linens and tasteful furniture. In addition, there is 1500 square feet of decking for outdoor dining and relaxing, a lap pool with an automatic cover and a 6-person outdoor hot tub with a beautiful view of the Mayacamas mountains and the Sonoma valley.

NEW IN MARCH OF 2021: Outdoor kitchen and bar with gas and wood grills, professional bartender’s sink, seating for four and night lighting.

Secluded yet only five minutes from the award-winding wineries of the northern Sonoma Valley. 12 miles from Sonoma Plaza, ten miles to Santa Rosa; 30 minutes to the Russian River and Napa valley.

Absolutely delightful stay with family for a special birthday. The pictures show the beautiful house and grounds, but no pictures can portray the serene atmosphere on the hilltop with picturesque views in every direction, and only the sounds of nature. We enjoyed the cooler weather and no bugs! There is plenty to do with pool, tennis court, game room, and cabinet full of games for all ages. We had a private chef come to the house for the birthday dinner and enjoyed the patio and views more than any restaurant. Our group was age 3 through 80 and everyone is ready go back. Communication with the owner wasn't ever necessary for any problems, but was quick and easy for a few questions.

Wonderful house with amazing views

Perfect stay in the hills above Kenwood. Spectacular views. The house has a fully equipped kitchen and outdoor grill which we used several times. We were a family of 6 having our annual holiday reunion and stayed for 8 nights. Within easy reach of restaurants and a coffee shop.

Words and photos can’t do this property justice! It’s really the most perfect and beautiful house and grounds with the most gorgeous views. The pool is at the perfect temperature for a hot Sonoma day and we were able to watch the moon rise sitting in the cedar hot tub. The open living space with mountains on three sides is spectacular. The indoor and outdoor kitchens are well stocked and bedrooms super comfy. Bonus: Beautiful wildlife abounds if you are into birds :)

Peaceful with Picture Perfect Views

Great views from many perspectives on the property along with the pool, tennis court and basketball hoop provided our family with exactly what we wanted. Loved the glass on three sides of the family room. Felt like you were outdoors. When we had questions, the owner was extraordinarily prompt in responding. Lovely, relaxing time for our family.

Better than the photos

Lavender Hill was the perfect spot for a weekend reunion with a bunch of friends to celebrate a milestone birthday! The home is beautiful and has everything you need for a great stay. The panoramic views were breathtaking and our group spent the majority of our stay in the living area soaking up the beauty. We had grand plans for making more use of the sport court and would've loved to use the pool (it was too cold), but this just makes it easier to plan a return stay in the future. Thanks to the hosts for sharing their beautiful hilltop retreat to guests!

Excellent winter holiday stay

The drive in and out of the property will amaze from the start! The property is wonderfully situated a top a quiet and peaceful Sonoma mountain with fantastic views in all directions. The house is beautifully architected and great for a large group, including the guest house. Game room, hot tub, chef’s kitchen and fire places made for an excellent stay. Kenwood Winery was our fave right near the house. Host was excellent with any questions we had. Our group was super pleased!

New Year’s Retreat

Our adult family of 8 had a terrific time in Kenwood. The home is very well appointed with lots of custom touches and high end sheets and towels. We love to cook and enjoyed the kitchen which has all the toys a chef will need. The grill kitchen, pickle court and hot tub were all put to use. The location is perfect with great views and proximity to all the Sonoma points of interest.

Epic Family Getaway

Our family getaway to Lavender Hill was definitely one to remember. This was for a joint birthday celebration for sister and mom, the perfect coming together place for our three families, ages ranging from 3yo to 80yo. We enjoyed our time making meals together in the spacious kitchen and countless hours spent outdoors - on the swings, court, around the fire pit, in the hot tub, and exploring the overall grounds. William was a fantastic host, so incredibly kind and thoughtful. Extremely responsive to our needs and quick to respond to any question. Unfortunately it was too cold for the pool but just another reason to look forward to a future stay.
