A newly constructed Kenwood home on 1.42 acres abutting a vineyard is currently listed for sale. The four-bedroom, three-and-a-half bathroom modern dwelling is designed to make the most of the coveted Wine Country setting. The asking price is $3,590,000.

The 4,302-square-foot home was designed by Glen Ellen-based TBE Architecture and built by Bay Area-based Unimax Construction. It doubles down on the sense of openness with vaulted ceilings and an open floor plan. 

The great room includes a kitchen, dining area and lounge area with a stone-faced hearth. The kitchen features an eat-in counter and closeted pantry. Numerous windows and sliding doors give the outdoor views center stage.

Bathrooms draw a sense of nature inside via tiles that mimic a slatted wood siding. Windows are placed to frame the views outside.

The home includes a media room and an office. The landscaped exterior offers lots of spots for lounging by trees and vines.

A new luxury five-bedroom, six-bathroom home and casita in Kenwood is currently listed for sale. The modern dwelling, with a combined 5,200-square-feet of living space, is seeking $12,800,000 — the highest listing price in the tiny town’s history. 

Four of the home’s bedrooms are suites. All living areas have floor-to-ceiling views of the lush landscape and Sonoma Valley thanks to Portuguese glass door systems, some of which tower at 17 feet.

There’s a media room and a chef’s kitchen with a Lacanche range, a walk-in refrigerator, and a kegerator for the hops-happy Wine Country dweller.

The lush gardens include a 65-foot saltwater pool and spa, a full outdoor kitchen and a pool house.

Other architectural elements include custom steel fascia, white oak cabinetry, radiant heated floors, copper gutters and downspouts, and hand-milled cedar siding. The angular home with its natural palette gives a strong-yet-subdued aesthetic, which sits gently in the breathtaking setting.

The post New Luxury Home in Kenwood Is the Most Expensive Listing in Town’s History appeared first on Sonoma Magazine.

Mediterranean style is right at home in a 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom Sonoma Valley property for sale on Los Guilicos Avenue, just a short distance from Kenwood. The property, surrounded by rolling hills and vineyards, is listed for $3,650,000.

The vineyards are not part of the property but are located just outside, so vineyard views are available without the watering, pruning and harvesting that comes with owning a vineyard. The home, built in 2008, references a classic Mediterranean villa with clay roof tiles, arched windows, terracotta stucco and iron detailing.

The windows are framed in rustic stained wood. This material has also been used in the oversized doors and in the built-in cabinetry in the library and kitchen. The warm wood has been ornamented with wrought iron door handles and scrollwork — the door to the wine cellar includes forged grapes. Lots of travertine tile has been incorporated throughout the home.

The look of this home is both elegant and rustic, a good match for many of the buildings in the heart of Wine Country. 15-foot vaulted ceilings add to the sense of grandeur of the 4380-square-foot home.

Climbing ivy adorns the front of the home and a large four-tier fountain fit for an Italian villa stands in the center of the front yard. The landscape is kept simple and green with rows of ever-so-Mediterranean Italian cypress, plus hedges and balls of rosemary, lavender and other plants.

A built-in wood-burning pizza oven, a bocce ball court and a trellised swim spa make the property feel even more like a retreat. The great room is separated from the patio by large windows and French doors that allow for a seamless transition between indoors and outdoors. Click through the above gallery to view the property.
