Small, close-knit Santa Rosa community rebuilding itself
“People who live in Larkfield-Wikiup think of it as their own little city,” says Sullivan Group Realtor and local resident of 12 years Julie Sullivan. “They’re just really proud of it. They’ll support their small businesses and greet each other at the market.” Adjacent to multiple parks and local shopping areas, this small, self-contained neighborhood is steadily restoring itself after the devastating Tubbs wildfire destroyed nearly 700 homes, many in the Larkfield Estates area. Now, new single-family houses sit on once barren quarter-acre lots, and community members themselves have formed groups to continue the rebuilding process of their little city.

Shopping at longstanding Molsberry Market
Molsberry Market is a favorite local place for grocery shopping, according to Sullivan. The 60-year-old family establishment sells meat and produce from nearby Foster Farms along with a killer wine selection from several wineries nearby. After stopping in for groceries, locals can sip on lattes at Blue Beagle or check out the beloved Homerun Pizza for knuckle balls—pizza dough stuffed with mozzarella cheese and bacon. Mi Ranchito is a half-mile drive down the road and serves savory mole burritos with rice and beans on the side. Handmade jewelry created by local artists and vintage home décor are available at Treasure House Consignment located about 5 miles from the neighborhood, and retail chains like JCPenney and Nordstrom can be found in Coddington Mall.
Molsberry's Market in Larkfield-Wikiup offers residents a small, close-by daily grocery option.
Lighter traffic and convenience to US-101
Sullivan says the neighborhood is somewhat walkable, but most people drive to get around. “On the north end where we are at, we don’t see as much traffic as opposed to the central part of the county,” she says. Downtown Santa Rosa is about a 7-mile drive south via US-101, and for a day trip to cooler climates, Shell Beach in Bodega Bay is 30 miles west. Sonoma County Airport and Sutter Santa Rosa Regional Hospital are conveniently within 3 miles of the community.
