I meet many people who have visited Sonoma as tourists and dream of retiring here. Too often, they've been convinced by the press that it simply isn't possible. I'm here to tell you it absolutely is. Let me show you how. 22 Saint Mathews Court is part of the Chanterelle community, a welcoming neighborhood with a clubhouse and swimming pool. Weekly and monthly gatherings create a true sense of community, where neighbors come together to play, plant, paint, garden, and entertain one another. This charming single-family home is just 10 minutes from the restaurants, boutiques, and wine tasting rooms of Sonoma Square. Inside, the living room features soaring cathedral ceilings, warm wood floors, and a cozy fireplace. A sliding glass door opens to the deck, which in Sonoma's three-season climate feels like three additional outdoor rooms perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The formal dining area also features a cathedral ceiling, adding a sense of occasion and elegance to everyday meals and gatherings. The kitchen includes brand-new appliances and an inviting breakfast nook that could easily double as a sunny home office. There are two spacious bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom. The primary suite feels peacefully separated from the rest of the home. Soft carpeting quiets the space and enhances its cozy, private atmosphere. The primary bathroom features a large soaking tub perfect for unwinding at the end of the dayand generous closets with plenty of room to organize your wardrobe exactly the way you like. The second bedroom is equally charming and offers its own quiet sense of privacy. Outside, the yard is surprisingly spacious and features a dry creek bed along the side, adding natural character to the landscape. Additional conveniences include an in-home laundry area, a two-car garage, and space for two more cars in the driveway. Don't deny yourself the dream of living in Sonoma especially when it can cost less than rent.
