Your Haven on the Hill. Western Sebastopol Gem. Pool. Hot tub. View. | House in Sebastopol
1 Bedroom House in Freestone, Sebastopol
YOU JUST FOUND YOUR HEAVEN ON THE HILL. We are out here, yet in the middle of everything!!!!
When family and friends came to visit, they never wanted to leave. This is why we created the magical BIRDHOUSE in 2014. Located one hour north of San Francisco, smack-dab in the middle of the world famous Sonoma County wine country. We are 20 minutes from the beautiful Pacific Coast or the magnificent Armstrong Redwoods or the Russian River. The Sebastopol area, a mere 4 miles east, is bursting with world class wineries, restaurants, art, music, and so much more.
The Birdhouse at FancyNest Farm is perched among the pine trees on 2 1/2 acres, which seems larger because of sweeping western valley views of the vineyards, and overlooks a stunning pool. The light-filled, one bedroom home is perfect for your next relaxing vacation in the wine country.
DESCRIPTION OF THE 900 sq.ft. HOUSE:
THE LIVING AREA: The main living area is open and spacious with 17' ceilings and ample, comfortable seating. We want you to feel at home with thoughtful design touches that go beyond the normal vacation rental. Of course we have high speed WiFi and TV. The living room is connected to the dining and kitchen area, making it easy to keep the conversation going. The sofa pulls out to a 6 inch queen memory foam mattress. The blankets and pillows are located in the closet, to the left of the front door. There’s a wonderful fireplace for those chilly evenings.
The nook off the living room has a full size bed and good lighting. It is a perfect place for kids to sleep or to have an afternoon nap in the sun. Even a desk if you need to work. A highlight of the room is the bank of western facing windows...and the ever-changing view.
WHAT ABOUT THE KITCHEN:
We have stocked the cabinets as if we were staying there; all that you need to cook an excellent meal as if you were home. Your basic condiments and spices are on hand because we would want that if we were on vacation. We included a microwave, coffee maker and bean grinder, blender and a dishwasher. The oak dining table has four mid-century chairs that mom bought back in '64…plus that great view. A bird feeder hangs outside the dining room window for unlimited enjoyment . The sliding door off the kitchen opens to the multi-tiered deck which has an outdoor table, chairs and umbrella. The charcoal grill is at the ready in case you bring back oysters from Tomales. Or veggies and fixings from the many farmer's markets. Don’t hesitate to ask if you need anything.
THE BEDROOM:
Without exception, everyone who walks upstairs into the bedroom is enveloped by serenity and peacefulness. Great attention was paid to create a space where the outside world melts away. We invested in a top of the line memory foam mattress, (waterproof and bedbug proof encasements for your ease of mind) excellent sheets, high quality feather pillows and lovely down duvet and sea foam green blanket. We installed an incredible collection of original paintings depicting images of San Francisco, or Mendocino, or Mexico….from the 50's, 80's and 90's. Theoriginal artwork throughout was made by the Owners. Sit on the comfy chair and gaze outside on the balcony overlooking the pool. A beautiful mid century wooden dresser has a mirror and lighting. The large closet houses an iron and board for your convenience. A portable crib is located in the closet.
THE BATHROOM:
The only bathroom is located up a flight of stairs on the second level. It contains a toilet, sink and a bath tub/shower.
WHAT ABOUT THE POOL AND HOT TUB:
A path on the western side of the building leads you to the pool and hot tub. The pool has a large designer Cabaña and Baño . The pool is heated by a passive thermal solar panels on the cabana roof, which makes swimming wonderful during the late spring (April) summer and early fall months (early October). The hot tub sits on a lovely perch where you will enjoy the amazing, 180 degree views. This is a place where you can further unwind and relax.
The owners sometimes share the pool but take great care to leave the hot tub and pool area to the guests each evening for their personal use. If you are interested in having exclusive use of the pool area, it can be arranged for an additional fee.
ANYTHING ELSE?
There is ample parking for two cars.
Washer and Dryer makes life even more relaxing!

The property is 2 1/2 acres. Casual gardens spaces are interspersed with Mother Nature herself. We have many apple trees. The lasting impression of this place is the vast sky. From many locations you have a 180 degree view of unobstructed openness. The BIRDHOUSE is named and lovingly decorated to honor the many varieties of birds who call FancyNest Farm home. Look up and you might see a red shouldered hawk drawing circles in the sky. Listen carefully to hear the hummingbird zipping about in the bottle brush trees. We provided a bird feeder and bath so you can have an upfront experience with the birds. On a clear night be prepared for a spectacular show of stars. If you want to know how great the Birdhouse really is...our guests sum up the beauty, comfort and peacefulness of this vacation rental way better than I ever could. Here’s a review from a recent 14 year old guest:
“Thank you for this remarkable slice of heaven. The pool gave us the chance to smile and relax. The house gave us relaxation. The beautiful Mother Nature gave us adventure. The magic of the Birdhouse is in every fiber of this romantic destination. I am pleasantly surprised because I didn’t know I would fall in love with the Birdhouse, Sebastopol, and you remarkable people with so much kindness and warmth. I am leaving here lovesick and with a bit of heart ache, but most of all, I am leaving with gratitude. Thank you for sharing the Birdhouse magic with us.” Cora (14) Bainbridge Island, WA.
