About this House

Described best as peaceful, tucked away at the top of a private lane in Laurel Heights, this 1932 two-bedroom, one-bath home offers a rare opportunity to restore and reimagine a piece of history. Brimming with original character, the home features lovely hardwood floors. The expansive living room is perfect for enjoying music, thanks to its naturally warm acoustics and the stunning wood ceiling. Oversized windows add natural light at the front of the home, while a detached redwood view deck in the back invites you to unwind and enjoy the park-like setting with beautiful views of the Sonoma Mountains. (you may even catch a snowy peak on occasion!) The front dining room along with a separate multi-use space provide options for flexible living styles. At the garage level, a naturally temperate subterranean space offers ideal conditions for a future wine cellar or creative work area. Though the home has areas in need of attention, it offers a unique canvas for those eager to bring new life to a property with soul, space, and potential. Petaluma's Economic Development Division describes this western neighborhood as Petaluma's Park Place. Full of historic architecture, it is considered one of the most coveted in Petaluma. Don't miss this opportunity to own here!
