About This Home

As of September 2024

Striking 1960's contemporary residence on the upper ridge of West Petaluma's La Cresta. Architecturally unique, this approx. 2,565 sq. ft residence anchors a large corner lot and offers breathtaking, panoramic views of town. Now available to purchase for the first time in over 25 years, 34 La Cresta Drive offers 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms while living mostly on the upper, entry level. Foyer leads to two separate living areas: a sunken living room with access to the south-facing deck and a large, open-concept great room with vaulted ceilings, a full wall of unique, tall windows and fireplace. The kitchen remodel has started and includes newer cabinetry, large center island and walk-in pantry. On the lower level, the two car garage is complemented by a large laundry/mud room, sauna and easy access to a walk-in crawl space (great potential wine cellar, storage or bonus room). Truly a blank canvas with tremendous upside potential for you to make this your contemporary home in one of Petaluma's most desirable locations. Just one mile to Historic Downtown Petaluma.
