'60s Modern Cottage in Napa/Sonoma Wine Country

Perched on Sonoma Mountain, surrounded by vineyards. This is the ultimate Wine Country exchange. Experience Sonoma County as the local growers and winemakers do (minus the hard work)!

This home is in the heart of Wine Country, above Sonoma Valley--the place Jack London called "The Valley of the Moon" in his famous novel of that title. We are in a region full of the best hiking, cycling, dining, and wine-tasting opportunities in the world. We love Sonoma best, but you can also visit the wine route of the Napa Valley just 15 miles away, and we are just an hour from Pacific Ocean beaches and spectacular ocean drives.

Ours is a rural road that winds past vineyards and hidden mansions, yet we are only one hour and fifteen minutes from San Francisco.

NOTE: If you wish, exchange might also include use of our San Francisco apartment (Intervac listing USC724), an hour and fifteen minutes away.

Welcome to California!

We are Charles (retired art critic, college president, and art museum director) and Kitty (the retired Features Editor of a major newspaper). We now split our time between homes in San Francisco and in Sonoma County, as Kitty works on writing a book and Charles considers the metaphors presented by a small vineyard, orchard, and garden.

We have no children. We have nice things around, much of which is fragile and could cause injury if damaged by a child. Therefore, our homes are not suitable for kids.
