    What's special

    Quiet private feelLight-filled homeTwo patiosNewer appliancesUpdated bathroomsBeautiful older homeDecorative fireplaces
    Dramatic price reduction on this beautiful older home in The Cottages - important to note the space rent is $1866, and that you have to qualify for 3x that in monthly income, to qualify for park approval. If all that fits, this is a great opportunity to update or remove and replace the property. Located in The Cottages of Petaluma, one of the area's most desirable 55+ communities, this light-filled home sits on the corner of a peaceful cul-de-sac toward the back of the park, with views toward the Sonoma Hills and a quiet, private feel. Ideal for those seeking low-maintenance living, a 'rightsizing' opportunity, or housing for a loved one wanting independence within a welcoming community setting. The home offers comfortable immediate livability with the flexibility to update and personalize over time. Interior features include updated bathrooms, newer appliances, carpeting, dual-pane living room windows, decorative fireplaces, and a bright enclosed porch off the dining area. The primary bedroom opens to a private backyard patio, while outdoor spaces include two patios, low-maintenance gardens with a producing apple tree, and two large sheds with electricity ideal for hobbies, storage, or creative use. Per park guidelines, homes may be rented. Residents enjoy access to a clubhouse with pool, spa, gym, library, game room, bocce court, and beautifully maintained grounds, conveniently located near shopping, Highway 101, the SMART Train, and the Petaluma Farmers Market. Space rent doesn't increase on transfer. Next increase is December, and rent controlled.
