Between the Redwoods and the Coast

The Creek House Estate


Where the redwoods meet the coast, the air carries the scent of the forest and the briny promise of the Pacific, while blue skies shimmer above. Set across nearly 40 acres in the hills above Cazadero, just four miles from the Sonoma Coast, this retreat offers you two homes and the rare opportunity to settle into one while bringing the other to life on your own terms.

The Creek House, with three bedrooms and three baths across three levels and roughly 2,996 square feet, lies along a meandering seasonal creek. This fire-hardened home is completely framed, fully permitted and ready to be closed in - it’s just waiting for you to select your own finishes, design choices and make it your own. Picture windows and skylights bring in the natural light, with flexible space and an opportunity for a fourth bedroom. The second home is an adorable 1,152-square-foot A-frame with one bedroom plus a loft and one and a half baths, built in 2000 and extensively updated in 2020. It’s ready for guests, family, or a caretaker. Four locally milled redwood barns, fenced pastures, and predator-proof pens provide a thoughtfully designed setup for keeping alpacas, sheep, goats, or other livestock.


Self-sufficient by design, the property has a 16.32 kW solar system, three Tesla Powerwalls, and 400-amp service to keep your lights on. Spring-fed water gravity-flows from 20,000 gallons of storage, and a five-bedroom septic system serves the property. With Starlink available, your Tuesday of video calls can end with a walk to your swimming hole under a waterfall, or a glass of locally farmed Pinot Noir on the deck overlooking your valley.

A year-round river tumbles over waterfalls, and the verdant land is filled with mature redwoods, oaks, Douglas firs, and pines, interspersed with open grassy meadows. Apple, pear, and plum trees and table grapes grow in the clearings near the homes. And on a hot day, refreshing breezes drift in from the Pacific and the shade of the trees keeps you cool and comfortable.

Just two to three hours from San Francisco or the South Bay, this property will be your retreat from the world, whether you come for the weekend or stay for good. Yet privacy doesn’t mean being alone. While neighbors may be tucked beyond the trees, unseen from your own piece of the forest, there’s a strong sense of camaraderie among the roughly 60 properties that make up this community. This is where self-reliance meets generosity, and a quiet hardiness is softened by a deep appreciation for this remarkable corner of the world. That appreciation reaches all the way to the night sky. When the day winds down, the dark here is complete: no manmade light, just a blanket of stars.
