Absolute Calm In Glen Ellen, $8.5M
Author:Philip Ferrato
Designed from the ground up by Hommeboys, the Sonoma-based firm of Austin Carrier and Alex Mutter-Rottmayer (and built by their family firm of Rottmayer Design + Build) this extraordinary new home on fifteen deeply private acres brings a matchless sense of comfort and well-being to Wine Country living. Rooted in vernacular materials under a standing seam metal roof, echoing the area’s farm buildings, it’s sited gently on the slope of a hill overlooking Sonoma’s Valley of the Moon.

There are 10-foot ceilings throughout the main, upper level; the kitchen opens to an expansive deck through retractable Fleetwood window walls. And we might not want to leave the primary bedroom suite.

What We Love: The thoughtful layout means one could live here singly or as a couple; the neatly separated lower floor contains a media/family room and a wine room, flanked by a pair of bedroom suites. There’s also an earlier structure close by, now fully renovated with the same high standards, for use as a guest house or staff accommodation.
