Rural Petaluma Home Suited for Entertaining and Farm Life

Complete with a modernized farmhouse, junior ADU and entertainment barn, this rustic Petaluma home was made for some serious country living.


Some serious country living is on the market in rural Petaluma. A 14-acre property with a modernized three-bedroom, three-bathroom farmhouse, a junior ADU and a large entertainment barn is currently listed for sale. The asking price is $2,249,000.

The 2,286-square-foot, circa-1925 home has been extensively renovated with modern wiring, a metal roof and down-to-the-studs rebuilding. The farmhouse charm of a steep gable, double-hung windows and lap siding remain.

A dual-shower bathroom has been finished with Tadelakt plaster walls and a Sonoma Tilemakers floor with radiant heat. Amenities abound, including Lutron smart lighting, a Versa security system and a dog-wash sink. The kitchen has Thermador appliances and an induction cooktop.

The soil is rich for grazing, according to realtor Michelle Ocheltree. She said it’s also a suitable ground for horses, though horse infrastructure is needed.

The exposed-wood barn interior is very rustic, but it includes a built-in bar and some high-up sparkle from several chandeliers. Large sliding doors open to pasture views.

The away-from-it-all home is situated near other settings for fun, too. It’s a 15-minute drive from both quaint downtown Petaluma and picturesque, dog-friendly Dillon Beach.
