Along scenic Highway 101 in northern California and adjacent to the Russian River lies the historic town of Healdsburg. This quaint Alexander Valley town is the commercial center for northern Sonoma County wine country, and is centrally located to 100 world-class wineries and tasting rooms. Downtown Healdsburg is an eclectic mix of five-star restaurants, upscale boutiques, and galleries highlighting the works of gifted individuals and internationally recognized artists. Whether it’s a hot air balloon ride over the rolling country hills, wine tasting, bicycling, kayaking, or attending one of the many annual festivals, there is always a memorable experience available.
The Property
The Ranch on Soda Rock was designed with an environmentally sustainable focus and is nestled among award-winning wineries. Surrounded by flourishing vineyards and pleasing mountain views, the recently renovated ranch shares the property with an on-site boutique winery, a 20′ x 40′ solar heated saltwater pool, and an organically farmed vegetable and cutting flower garden.
Much more than a desirable ranch in a highly sought out area, ownership in The Ranch on Soda Rock include shares in its boutique winery.

Each owner will receive a minimum of 5 cases of their own estate bottled wine per year based on the vineyard yield.
The Residence
With thoughtful luxury touches throughout, you may forget that this is an environmentally friendly home with energy efficient appliances, lighting and plumbing. Designer lighting, granite counters, wine refrigerator, and custom European overlay styled doors adorn the gourmet kitchen. If you choose to dine outside, entertain at the outdoor kitchen for al fresco dining with vineyard views.
Each of the three master bedrooms has French doors opening to a large deck overlooking the vineyard, while the bathrooms are perfectly accented with stone and glass mosaic backsplashes, marble, travertine, and granite floor tiles. A natural stone slab surrounds the gas fireplace and is accentuated by the custom millwork mantle. A unique property in a highly desirable area, the Ranch on Soda Rock is professionally managed, includes housekeeping services, and concierge service is available for an additional fee.
