The Gravenstein - Sebastopol Orchard Retreat with Hot Tub

Named for Sebastopol's hometown apple, The Gravenstein is a newly renovated single-story retreat tucked into a serene redwood grove with its own small orchard — apricot, peach, cherry, plum, and apple trees you're welcome to sample in season. Soak in the brand-new 7-foot hot tub, roast s'mores at the stone fire pit ringed by Adirondack chairs, then rack a game on the new pool table at the game-room bar. Sleeps 6 in two bedrooms plus a den, about 10 minutes from The Barlow's tasting rooms.

Some Sebastopol stays put you in the middle of the action — The Gravenstein tucks you into the quiet instead. Set on a country lane south of town, this newly renovated single-story home sits under mature redwoods with its own fruit trees, a working greenhouse, and nothing on the evening agenda but the hot tub and the fire pit.

Inside, vaulted open-beam ceilings and a brick fireplace anchor the great room, where hardwood floors run underfoot and glass doors frame the green of the backyard. The renovation carried high-end fixtures and finishes through the whole house, and lets you come together and relax from the first pour of the evening.

The galley kitchen pairs quartz counters with a glowing mosaic backsplash and stainless appliances, and a dedicated beverage station adds a built-in wine rack and a glass-front drinks fridge. Snip basil and pick tomatoes from the greenhouse for dinner, or pull lemons and limes from the trees for patio cocktails. Serve at the dining table under the drum pendant, or claim the sunny breakfast nook for slow mornings.

Then there's the game room: the garage, fully converted with new hardwood floors, a brand-new pool table, a custom bar with a mini fridge, and a wall-mounted TV. Roll up the garage door on warm evenings and let the tournament spill out toward the driveway.

OUTDOOR LIVING
Out back, a brand-new 7-by-7-foot hot tub — the largest the owner could find — steams at the edge of a fenced lawn. Adirondack chairs circle the stone fire pit, with plenty of firewood stacked for s'mores nights under the redwoods. Flagstone and brick patios link the house to the yard, with umbrella-shaded dining, a barbecue grill, a chaise for afternoon reading, and a hammock in the shade. In harvest season you're welcome to pick a reasonable share of apricots, peaches, cherries, plums, and apples from the orchard — please leave some for the guests after you.
