Welcome to Kenwood Knoll in the town of Kenwood, just a short drive from local wineries, gastro-pubs and restaurants. Kenwood Knoll is a family friendly villa perched on a hillside above the Valley of the Moon.
What We Love About This Home
The backyard is enclosed by a large private courtyard with a swimming pool on one side and oak woodlands on the other. This wine country estate is your own private home away from home just minutes from the historic town of Kenwood.
Exterior Details
Indoor and outdoor space overlap effortlessly at Kenwood Knoll; glass doors open up the house to the courtyard patio, while the deck off of the great room boasts a sunning area, wicker seats and a view that extends for miles and miles down the heart of Sonoma Valley. Gathering spots can be found in every corner of the villa, from the ‘Zen garden’ in the front yard and the pear wood dining table in the back to the plush loveseats bordering the bookshelves.
Interior Details
Divided into 2 separate buildings, the guest house at Kenwood Knoll has its own private entrance apart from the main house, an especially ideal setup for multiple families traveling together. The guest house boasts an ensuite, queen-size bedroom just steps from the outdoor patio and pool area, along with an adjacent suite housing 2 twin beds. These bedrooms are connected and share a bathroom.
In addition, each of Kenwood Knoll’s air-conditioned bedrooms provide you with direct access to the outdoors and the winding trails that explore the property’s ancient oak woods. The main living and dining area does not have AC but offers sweeping sliding glass doors that provide comfortable air flow throughout the year.
It’s all about the details at Kenwood Knoll — the pool’s relaxation-inducing Baja bench, the dining table under the shaded arbor, the trickling water fountains throughout the property and the light-reflecting yellow walls are all designed to make the living space that much more inviting.
Spend your days cooking around the slate-topped kitchen island, soaking up sun rays on the poolside loungers or sipping on a glass of local red or white while admiring the sun dip down behind the rolling hills.
Though you’ll feel miles away from things at secluded Kenwood Knoll, in less than 10 minutes you can find yourself in the charming town of Kenwood or at a food and wine pairing at one of the most prestigious wineries in the region: St. Francis.
Guests staying at Kenwood Knoll will enjoy access to BeautifulPlaces pre-arrival assistance. Our local staff can assist with pre-trip suggestions for winery visits, private chef dinners and any other special experiences you desire. On arrival day you’ll find a bottle of local wine and gourmet coffee waiting for you in your villa, and our team is available during your stay to answer any questions you have.
