1800 Holmes Ranch Rd, Philo, CA - $689,000

Views for miles - quintessential Anderson Valley vistas stretch out from this charming cottage perched on the hills above the deep end of the Valley. Look down over the vineyards of Roederer Estate and beyond to the Redwood forest rising along the distant Coastal Range. This sweet home sits on 20 acres in the heart of Holmes Ranch, offering privacy, beauty, and a front‑row seat to the landscape that defines the region. The upper level features the primary bedroom and two bathrooms, while a second bedroom sits at the back of the home with its own separate entrance, ideal for guests or flexible use. Just outside this room is an outdoor shower perfectly positioned for enjoying the surrounding nature, especially on a hot day. A large front deck spanning three quarters of the home captures the sweeping views and provides a spectacular setting for sunset watching the sun move across the sky. The south and west sides of the property open to a broad meadow with irrigation access throughout, while the remainder of the acreage is forested, creating a balanced mix of usable land and natural woodland. As an added benefit, the meadow serves as a landing site for the air ambulance, offering peace of mind for both the property owner and the neighborhood in times of need.
