Set on more than half an acre among mature redwoods, this lovingly-maintained knotty pine, redwood, and cedar home offers rare privacy, forest views from every window, plus a flexible lower-level suite with its own entrance and parking area. Three features set this property apart: ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles, easy access to the main house with only a few steps from the carports, and a fully independent lower-level suite. The home balances original character with thoughtful updates. Preserved details include hardwood floors, knotty pine walls, and an oversized cast-iron clawfoot tub. The main level features a great room with vaulted wood ceilings, abundant natural light, a sleeping loft, and a large wood-burning stove. Glass doors open to a paver patio beneath the trees. The kitchen connects to a spacious deck, while the dining room includes a large skylight and built-in reading nook. Two bedrooms and a generously sized bathroom complete the main floor. The lower-level suite offers exceptional flexibility. With its own living room, bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette, wood-burning stove, and twenty foot deck, it functions equally well as guest quarters, a rental, a home office, studio, or workspace. Additional amenities include a large walk-in storage area beneath the house and a separate laundry shed with room for tools, bicycles, kayaks, and other gear. Privacy and parking are increasingly difficult to find in the Russian River area. This property borders Sonoma Land Trust-protected Monte Rio Redwoods, creating an uninterrupted forest backdrop and preserving the views from every room. Several off-street parking spaces, including two covered carports, provide convenience rarely found in the area. Located above the flood zone, the property is approximately five minutes from Villa Grande Beach and fifteen minutes from the Sonoma Coast. Nearby attractions include wineries, restaurants, community events, and Northwood Golf Club. Some furnishings available upon request.
