Affordability near downtown Santa Rosa
Not to be confused with the Sonoma County bookstore chain or the famous magician, Santa Rosa’s Copperfield neighborhood offers convenience to Highway 12, community parks and mostly mid-sized homes on ample lots. “Copperfield is kind of your entry-level in Sonoma County with a lower HOA,” says Josh Montelongo, a Realtor at Prosper Real Estate who has been selling homes in the area for three years. “You’re about a 5-minute drive to downtown. You’re right off Fulton and it’s a quick pop into Sebastopol. You’re close to most of the places you’d want to go in Sonoma County. For the price, you just can’t beat it.”
Copperfield residents get around on Highway 12 to and from Santa Rosa or Sebastopol.
Quiet streets and large homes are common in Copperfield.

Accessibility to Downtown Santa Rosa
“It's about 5 minutes to the 101, and the commercial drag is super easy, just off the 12,” Montelongo says. Easy access to Highway 12, Fulton Road and West 3rd Street, the latter of which is dotted with bus stops, makes traveling easy. It’s just 3 miles to the Santa Rosa Downtown Station on the Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit, otherwise known as SMART, and less than 5 miles to the Kaiser Permanente Santa Rosa Medical Center.
Copperfield residents traverse the region with the help of the SMART train.

Comfort food at Louie’s Fine Foods
Residents pick up groceries at FoodMaxx or the local gourmet chain, Oliver’s Market. Cozy, wood-paneled diner Louie’s Fine Foods has served three meals daily since 1941. Popular with local seniors, it’s known for its friendly service and big portions of comfort staples like waffles and corned beef hash. Soothingly lit and sprinkled with Asian curios, local standby Thai Pot hasn’t been refreshed since its late ‘90s debut, but its food remains delicious. And of course, it’s a quick drive to Downtown Santa Rosa and its abundance of popular restaurants, from Jackson’s Bar and Oven to the fine-dining Stark’s Steak & Seafood. On sunny days, residents drive 5 miles to The Barlow in Sebastopol, an open-air market where they can enjoy local food, wine and beer.
Copperfield grocery shopping options include Oliver's Market.

Hours of fun at A Place to Play
At 77 acres, Copperfield’s largest park is A Place to Play, with soccer and baseball fields, a playground, dog runs for pups both large and small and a fishing pond rimmed by a lush tumble of trees. Some days, the whirring of locals’ remote-control racecars on the park’s curving, rubber-lined track fills the air. A gravel-packed path loops the pond before connecting with the paved Santa Rosa Creek Trail, part of a six-mile walking and biking route that links up with the city’s downtown. A few smaller parks in the neighborhood, including Live Oak Park, offer a green space and playground for locals to enjoy.

Entry-level homes on a budget
Single-family homes are generally older ranch-style homes from the 1970s or 1980s and two-story Craftsman-inspired houses built between the 1980s and 1990s. “Like a lot of western Santa Rosa, this area was mostly farms and vineyards until the 1960s and 70s,” says Danny M. Cronin, a Realtor at W Real Estate. “The general vibe is established, with wide, quiet streets that are safe to walk on.” East of Fulton Road, the mostly two- to four-bedroom homes have medium-sized, tree-dotted yards and prominent garages. The median home price is $660,000, but prices range from $600,000 for a fixer-upper to about $700,000 for an updated home. Several mobile home communities are also located in Copperfield, offering residents double-wide two- or three-bedroom mobile homes for between $300,000 and $450,000. “It’s a great spot to get started, because you know there’s going to be a demand for that when you’re ready to sell and move into your forever home,” Montelongo says. “Equity builds. We sold one for $515,000 a couple of years ago, in 2021 or 2022, and it’d be in the $600,000 range now.” Although the homes tend toward the older side, not all of them need a lot of work. “Depending on the property, most of these homes were built in the 70s, so we’re seeing a lot of them getting facelifts,” says Ben LeBerthon, a Realtor at Coldwell Banker who has over 30 years of experience selling in the area. “Some of them can be quite nice inside and others can be quite dated.”
West of Fulton Road, a small collection of gated communities full of cul-de-sac subdivisions become leafier and more private, bordered by rural open space, farms and vineyards and selling for between $900,000 and $1.6 million.
