Father Junipero Serra had a keen eye for real estate, having set up missions throughout California. If one assumes he learned from his mistakes along the way, then his last mission here in Sonoma, was sited for very good reasons. Perhaps he saw no reason to venture further, or felt his mission had been accomplished upon the discovery of Sonoma Valley. General Vallejo expanded his vision with a city plan considered to be one of the best by students of urban planning. The eight acre central Plaza containing the seat of government, the historic barracks, the north-south and east-west grid of city streets, the wide entry along Broadway are the General's legacy. Area winemakers also understood geography, climate, soils, and water with most of the most notable and historic vineyards and wineries located to the northeast of the town square including Sebastiani and Buena Vista. This Planned Unit Development located on Las Casitas Court benefits today from those same influences which established the town of Sonoma. It's location close to the historic Plaza affords convenience to area shops, restaurants, attractions, religious facilities, and community facilities such as the Vintage House Senior Activity Center and the Sonoma Community Center. Traffic in the area is limited while walking paths through parks and vineyards are steps from your door. If you're not one to venture out frenquently to enjoy the sites and pleasures of Sonoma town life -- you will equally enjoy nesting in your confortable home with its spacious living room with fireplace and extensive library shelving, entertaining within your vaulted dining room, cooking fabulous meals in your efficient and convenient kitchen, or entertaining friends who visit and use your guest quarters.
