A Harmonious Fusion of Timeless Modern Architecture, Sustainable Innovation, and Integration with Nature.
Nestled amid extraordinary private land—creeks, mature trees, rolling meadowland, and vineyards—on one of Sonoma’s most bucolic pieces of land, the estate known as 247 redefines modern luxury via its seamless integration of sustainable design and state-of-the-art craftsmanship.
Esteemed architect Juan-Diego Perez-Vargas, well known and highly regarded for his work in hospitality design, conceived of the estate, drawing inspiration from the classic wine country farmhouse and blending timeless architectural elements with contemporary aesthetics, creating a space that is both rooted in tradition and forward-thinking while easily accommodating indoor-outdoor entertaining on any scale. Childhood experiences in Mexico and Arizona influenced the choice of a countryside environment intended for alfresco feasts and festivities and a life lived outdoors, beside a refreshing swimming pool.
The property was selected for its unique terrain—in particular the mature oak trees that shade the three acres and the two natural creeks that flow serenely along the perimeter, offering unparalleled privacy and a deep connection to nature. The uncommon entrance to the estate was designed to create a sense of discovery, with a gated private drive rolling and unfolding amid flourishing landscaping, maples, and olives as it approaches the home. The positioning of the residence preserves as many trees as possible, integrating it with its natural setting and creating a sense of tranquility. With hospitality in mind, the estate was conceived as a multigenerational retreat, planned and arranged to accommodate entertaining on any scale—for eight guests or 80.
The home’s design emphasizes harmony with the surrounding landscape, using sustainable materials and energy-efficient systems to minimize environmental impact while maximizing comfort and elegance. Its heart is a vast open great room comprising an exceptionally equipped kitchen with Miele and Wolf appliances, an Italian porcelain farmhouse sink, quartzite countertops, and custom European white oak cabinets; a butler’s pantry; a lengthy bar and buffet island with counter seating; a custom 100-bottle wine room; a dining area that easily accommodates a crowd; and a serene living area with systems in place to allow for the addition of a fireplace. Nearby is a more intimate space that can serve as a study, music room, family room, or library. Ceiling heights range from 12 to 17 feet, creating a sense of volume and drama, and the great room is equipped with its own Sonos sound zone.
Crowned by an airy vaulted ceiling, the primary bedroom opens through a wide set of eight-foot sliding glass doors to a pergola designed for private lounging while overlooking the eastern gardens. Completing the suite is a boutique-caliber closet and dressing area and a light-filled spa-inspired bath offering a spacious steam and rain shower, a floating vanity, and a soaking tub set beside a sliding wall of glass that gazes out over and opens to the idyllic grounds. Each of the three restful guest bedrooms features a soothing organic palette and is accompanied by a stylish en suite bath with quartzite countertops and European white oak cabinets.
The property boasts two extraordinary, expansive terraces perfect for entertaining or quiet reflection and featuring Sonos speakers, ceiling fans, two fire tables, and tall slender columns that echo the lines of the surrounding trees. In addition to a rejuvenating swimming pool and spa, an outdoor kitchenette with a grill and a pizza oven, and a bocce court, the grounds include sculpture by internationally acclaimed Mexican-born artist Francisco Valverde, whose works bring a modernist abstract aesthetic to an already sophisticated contemporary environment. Towering oak and maple trees, swaths of verdant lawn, and an olive grove envelop the residence and the outdoor spaces, creating a serene curtain of greenery and seclusion. The structures have been thoughtfully positioned, allowing the property to afford ample space and flexibility for addition, expansion, and numerous other functions.
Above the freestanding two-car garage—which includes storage space, a half bath, and a Tesla electric-vehicle charger—is a versatile 965-square-foot loft that can serve as guest quarters, an office, a media room, or a fitness space and is plumbed for a kitchenette and a full bath. An in-ground six-bedroom septic system allows for ease of expansion and an additional planned and permitted guest house is ready to be built.
The property can be purchased with furnishings and works of art, providing a cohesive turnkey experience for a discerning new owner. Multizone air conditioning and radiant heating with Nest controllers help maintain a pleasant temperature year-round. A private 350-foot-deep well, a state-of-the-art water-filtration system, a 5,000-gallon reservoir, a pressurized sprinkler system, solar power, and a natural-gas-powered back-up generator support sustainability and provide peace of mind. The Golden Gate and San Francisco are only a 40-minute drive away, and the estate is mere minutes from the historic downtown Sonoma Plaza.On one of Sonoma’s most bucolic pieces of land—amid creeks, mature trees, rolling meadowland, and vineyards at the end of a private lane—this estate combines a rustic but refined wine country charm with the sleek lines and sophisticated flair of the most coveted contemporary aesthetic. Esteemed architect Juan-Diego Perez-Vargas, well known and highly regarded for his work in hospitality design, conceived of the home as a labor of love. His childhood experiences in Mexico and Arizona influenced the choice of a countryside environment intended for alfresco feasts and festivities and a life lived outdoors, beside a refreshing swimming pool.

Neighborhood
A small town with a rich history, the center of the locavore food movement, and situated in the heart of Wine Country, the city of Sonoma is content to play country mouse to its more citified cousin, Napa. You won't find enormous tour buses disgorging hundreds of passengers in downtown Sonoma; the city of 10,000 residents is mostly laid-back and quiet.
Centered on what many call one of the most beautiful town plazas in the state, with its historic, preserved Mission that dates back to 1823, Sonoma has the feel of a small country town -- that is, if a small country town boasted more than a dozen tasting rooms of award-winning wineries. Surrounded by vineyards and more than 60 world-class wineries that mix the elegant with the down home, Sonoma is ground zero for great wine and the lifestyle that goes with it.
All that makes Sonoma a premier destination, sought after for its mellow pace, natural beauty, and proximity to San Francisco, just 45 miles south. Sonoma offers plenty of things to do, including jazz festivals, parades, cooking classes, the Sonoma International Film Festival, and exhibitions and openings at Sonoma Valley Museum of Art.
Spacious homes in the vineyards and rolling hills around Sonoma command spectacular views. Today, the multimillion-dollar estates of Sonoma range from Tuscan-style villas to more adventurous concrete and glass architectural statements.
