A private, comfy 3bd-2ba historic home in the heart of downtown Petaluma!

Designated a Heritage Home of Petaluma, this three bedroom, two bathroom craftsman is over one hundred years old. Built in 1911 it maintains much of its original charm and character... and a few quirks. Through the original diamond-paned front doors a cozy living room awaits. The open dining room features the original built-in hutch with additional access from the kitchen. A professional Wolf range and stainless appliances accompany a farm sink with butcher block counters and a coffee bar. (We’ve got you covered for your first rise + shine!) The vintage sideboard turned eat-in island features a black granite countertop and is the perfect place to gather for hors d'oeuvres or meal prep. Swing the French doors open and mingle between indoors and outdoors.

This home offers multiple opportunities to take in the well-loved garden. A large conversation pit of Adirondack chairs sits beneath a majestic Redwood –– one of Petaluma's Registered Heritage Trees. The side yard features dining al fresco with twinkling cafe lights above. The deck is a perfect place to enjoy breakfast under the market umbrella or hang out while dinner is on the grill. The front porch is an especially lovely place to take in the pedestrian traffic on a busy Petaluma weekend, whether from the stoop or while foraging for berries in the garden.

Just off the kitchen you will find a laundry room complete with washer, dryer, staples, ironing supplies, reusable grocery bags, recycling bins and access to the downstairs bathroom. This Jack + Jill style bathroom is also accessible from the main floor's bedroom, which is off the dining room.

At the top of the stairs you will be greeted by an open landing with a nice work table and large closet. Off the landing are two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and space for a portable crib, and another with a queen bed. The upstairs is filled with odd-bungalow-angles, little nooks and curious doors. One bedroom opens up into a bonus space which was once the most magical playroom. While this room still boasts an easel, a dollhouse and a formidable lego collection, today this room serves as a place to watch TV, read or catch a nap while the kids are busy. The upstairs bathroom features a claw foot tub in addition to a separate shower stall and double sink vanity.

Each of the three bedrooms features a queen bed, feather pillows, two down-alternate pillows, high quality sheets, down comforters with duvet covers and extra blankets should it be chilly. The bathrooms are outfitted with plenty of towels and toiletries. The coffee bar has enough supplies to get you through your first morning and there are basic condiments available in the kitchen. The prime location of this home is what drew us here to begin with. We instantly became daily shoppers, walking to the market to fill a bag for our evening meal — a little urban touch in the most charming small town on the edge of some of the most beautiful countryside… right outside your vacation front door.
