Property Description

This 2 bedroom with 2 1/2 bath plus auxiliary space down stairs is located on three parcels approx. .45 of an acre just a short 10-minute walk to Steelhead Beach and the Russian River. It is a special Forestville property that offers the perfect combination of river lifestyle, sunshine, privacy, and natural beauty while being elevated above the flood zone. The grounds are truly extraordinary, meandering stone pathways lead through spectacular terraced gardens, mature oak trees, and thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces that invite peaceful mornings, afternoon gardening, and evenings entertaining beneath the stars. The home embraces California indoor-outdoor living with expansive sun-drenched decks, a relaxing hot tub, outdoor shower, and multiple places to gather and enjoy the surrounding natural beauty. Inside, the main living space is filled with warmth and character featuring soaring vaulted wood ceilings, skylights, abundant windows, and a beautiful solarium that floods the home with natural light and brings the outdoors inside. The updated kitchen opens to inviting living areas designed for both everyday comfort and weekend escapes. The primary suite offers a private bathroom, while the additional bedroom features a charming loft sleeping area ideal for children, guests, or a cozy reading retreat. The lower-level auxiliary space provides wonderful flexibility as a private guest retreat, home office, artist studio, or creative workspace. An additional gated entrance from the upper portion of Rio Vista Road provides convenient access to the upper gardens and parcels, creating even more possibilities for enjoying this unique setting. Ideally situated in the heart of Sonoma County, this exceptional retreat offers easy access to Forestville, the Russian River, world-class wineries, farm-to-table dining, and all the experiences that make Wine Country one of California's most sought-after destinations. Whether you are searching for a full-time residence, a weekend escape from the Bay Area, or a place to immerse yourself in nature, 9695 Rio Vista Road offers a rare opportunity to experience the very best of Russian River and Sonoma County living.
