MLS# 326050577 - 1477 Lawndale Road, Kenwood, CA 95452

Perched at the top of Lawndale Road with commanding, panoramic views of vineyards, mountains, and the Valley of the Moon, this private gated estate represents one of Kenwood's most compelling opportunities and one of the most undermarketed properties to come off the Sonoma Valley market in years. Set on 8.34 oak-studded acres in the heart of Wine Country, this owner-built chalet was designed and constructed by the current owner in 1992 with distinctive stone and wood craftsmanship that sets it apart the moment you arrive. Inside, the 3-bedroom, 3-bath, 2,306 sq ft home delivers the wine country lifestyle in full. The living room anchors the main level with a fireplace, soaring arched transom windows, and French doors opening to expansive multi-level decks where vineyard and mountain views stretch in every direction. A formal dining room with hardwood floors, chandelier, and its own French door deck access flows seamlessly into a bright kitchen with gas cooktop, stainless wall oven, and a sunny wraparound bay breakfast nook. The primary suite features its own fireplace, vaulted ceiling, ceiling fan, and private French door access to a view balcony. An attached 2-car garage, interior laundry, and propane central heat complete the package. At 8.34 acres zoned RR4, this property carries verified lot split potential that was never properly marketed during its prior listing and that omission is the reason it sits available today. With a 4-acre minimum threshold, a survey and perc test are the remaining steps to create a second estate-sized view lot on one of Sonoma Valley's most prestigious rural addresses. Add ADU potential under California's permissive accessory dwelling laws, Flood Zone X designation, and proximity to world-class wineries, Annadel State Park, Glen Ellen, and the Sonoma Valley corridor all within roughly an hour of the Golden Gate Bridge. This is a legacy property with a second act waiting to be written.
