Healdsburg has a well deserved reputation as a great town for food and wine. Visitors flood the streets, especially now during harvest time when the weather is spectacular and the colors in the vineyards are starting to change. A certain percentage of well-heeled visitors end up falling in love with our area and decide to acquire property for a second home, retirement, or just for relocation to be here full time.
Typically, our inventory of Healdsburg luxury homes is small. There just aren't that many million dollar and up homes or land on the market. There actually aren't that many homes like that in the area, period. We do have plenty of agricultural million dollar properties with planted vineyards selling for $50,000 to $65,000 per acre, but there are only a few neighborhoods that define the luxury housing segment for Healdsburg.
On our agent weekly tour of Healdsburg properties yesterday we got to see four new luxury listings and they were all wonderful examples of wine country living. Three of them had vineyards connected to them, and one was an in-town bungalow on Matheson St. with all the charm you could want in a house that's an easy walk to the Healdsburg Plaza.
Two of them were variations on French country style homes. On Chalk Hill is a lovely, older home with mature landscaping beautifully maintained. The home is rambling with high ceilings and lovely details, a pool, multiple terraces, multiple outbuildings, and a charm that only comes with age.
The Westside Road listing is a more modern home, but loaded with authentic old-time feel. The floors in the top image are wonderful, rustic oak floors with square nails holding them in place. It's stunning. The house is open and light with doors opening to the outside from nearly every room.
Both these homes have vineyards.
If you happen to be in the market for a fantastic wine country residence or country property, I would be happy to share my love for this area with you.
