Description

There is a particular kind of confidence that comes with good bones. This two-bedroom, two-bath residence--1,641 square feet of unimpeachable 1960s design--wears its era without apology. Clean lines, honest materials, a floor plan that understood, decades before anyone coined the term, that light and volume are the true luxuries. Set on nearly two-thirds of an acre (.6061, to be exact), the property unfolds with an ease that feels both curated and unforced. Intentional plantings trace the home's geometry rather than fight it; decks and gardens are composed in conversation with the architecture, not in spite of it. There is room here--actual, rare room--for a lap pool, should one wish to complete the tableau. Call it what it is: this property has a certain sensuousness. The kind that comes from a house that knows exactly what it is. Forestville itself is the quiet key to the whole equation--a hamlet that serves as gateway to the Russian River's beaches and trails, with destination dining and storied wineries scattered along its periphery. San Francisco sits a mere hour south, close enough for convenience, far enough for the exhale. This is mid-century living as it was meant to be: unhurried, well-composed, and entirely sure of itself.
