180 West Trinity Road, Glen Ellen

A PEACEFUL GLEN ELLEN RETREAT SURROUNDED BY GARDENS AND VIEWS

Set along a quiet stretch of West Trinity Road, just off Dunbar in Glen Ellen, this timeless Wine Country property offers the best of Sonoma living: serenity, space, and natural beauty, all within minutes of town. Framed by mature trees and gardens, the home overlooks neighboring vineyard parcels and enjoys long views south across the Sonoma Valley.

The property is designed for relaxed, indoor-outdoor living. Meandering stone and gravel pathways wind through raised vegetable beds, flower gardens, and old-growth trees. The atmosphere is peaceful and secluded, yet the village of Glen Ellen—with its wine tasting rooms, restaurants, boutique market, and French patisserie—is only moments away. Jack London State Park and miles of scenic trails are also nearby.

The main residence is a single-level, approximately 1,989± square-foot home that combines European influences with classic Wine Country warmth. Clerestory windows bring in natural light throughout the day, while generous rooms open easily to surrounding decks and terraces. The living room feels open and airy, designed to draw in the garden views and create an easy flow for entertaining.

The spacious kitchen is both functional and inviting, designed for those who love to cook and gather. Its open layout connects directly to the back deck, creating a seamless extension of living space that’s perfect for al fresco meals overlooking the gardens and valley beyond.

There are three bedrooms and two full bathrooms in the main home, including a comfortable primary suite that opens to the outdoors. A separate guest cottage provides additional flexibility for hosting friends and family or creating a private work-from-home retreat.

Every element of the landscape has been cultivated to enhance the natural rhythm of the site. In the morning, the back deck is bathed in soft light—the perfect spot for coffee among the treetops. Afternoons invite barbecues with family and friends. Evenings bring a quiet glow across the valley as the gardens settle into shade.

The grounds are as practical as they are beautiful. Raised beds yield vegetables and flowers through much of the year, while solar panels and a new heating system provide efficient, modern comfort. Extensive fire-resilient upgrades have been made, including a fire-resistant deck, new vent systems, lava rock perimeters, and widened stone paths to protect and preserve the property’s natural character.

The combination of privacy, thoughtful design, and a strong connection to the landscape makes 180 West Trinity Road a rare find in Glen Ellen. It’s a place where mornings begin with birdsong, afternoons unfold among the gardens, and evenings end under the valley sky—an enduring expression of the relaxed Sonoma lifestyle.
