About this House

Beautiful, private, unique and furnished Studio, with lots of light and storage in the heart of west side Petaluma. Located on a very quiet street, four blocks from downtown and four blocks in the other direction to open space. This unit was built in 2015 and is modern and very unique. Owner and two dogs live on the property about half the time. You should be comfortable around dogs, though once they get to know you, they will be very friendly. The last person to stay here intended to stay for 3 months and he liked it so much he stayed for 3 years.

Because of flakey people, if you are seriously interested, you will need to submit a Zillow application prior.

The unit comes furnished with all utilities included. There is high speed wifi available. One set of linens and towels will be provided.

  • Sandra Limbach
    "I don’t commute. I work from home. So to meet the word requirement. I will say that my commute time is very short. Just enough for me to walk down the hall to my office."
  • Artbaron525
    "Best place to live in Sonoma county , low crime rate , schools could be better though overall out of 10 I give an 8.5"
  • renfrojeff
    "I moved from San Francisco. It’s great not having to worry if you locked the front door and there is a great movie theatre, many dog parks and lots of yoga studios. Check out Dillon beach!"
  • Catnbrat
    "It’s miserable. The traffic around town has tripled in the last few years. I don’t know how they think all the people in the houses they are building are going to get around but we can’t have any more cars on our roads; they just weren’t designed for this many people"
  • Brian.spores
