About This Home

As of July 2026

Gracefully situated on a quiet, tree-lined street just moments from the historic Sonoma Plaza, this charming three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence, originally built in 1949, embodies the understated elegance and relaxed sophistication that define life in Sonoma. Rich with classic character and warmth, this home offers inviting living spaces filled with natural light and a thoughtful floor plan that balances comfort with functionality. The three-bedroom, two bath configuration provides flexibility for family living, hosting guests, plenty of room for family, or just creating a refined work-from-home environment. The step saver kitchen has original tile counter tops with stainless steel appliances allowing you to reel in the retro feel and style. Converted rear half of the garage space allows plenty of room for overflow guests or a family game room or even movie nights. Outside, the property invites a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle so characteristic of wine country living. The outdoor spaces provide a tranquil setting for quiet mornings, garden gatherings, or evenings spent dining beneath Sonoma's warm skies. Ideally positioned and centrally located in Boyes Hot Springs, near recently renovated Larson Park, world class restaurants, close to markets, and tasting rooms. The home also offers convenient access to the cultural and culinary experiences that make Sonoma Valley one of Northern California's most celebrated destinations. Whether envisioned as a full-time residence, a refined weekend retreat, or a cherished wine country escape, 233 Dechene Avenue presents a rare opportunity to own a timeless home in the heart of Sonoma.
