Stunning Tuscan House in the Heart of Sonoma's Wine Country

Set among the legendary hills of Glen Ellen that adventurer Jack London made famous in his novels, our Tuscan home shares the same pristine views that drew London to settle here. Just minutes outside of the charming village, this sumptuous 11-acre estate enjoys complete privacy and is designed to fully embrace the wine country lifestyle.

Take the two-lane road from the village of Glen Ellen then up the private drive to Villa Bacchus and find yourself in a sunny, secluded retreat designed with every element you need to relax, play and celebrate with friends and family. Architect and nationally known artist, Dennis Ziemienski, created a stunning contemporary expression of wine country living that is in harmony with the land and its history.

The driveway circles around a tall fountain, and the main house, the guest house and the garage all border on the drive. The buildings design was inspired by Andrea Palladio, a Renaissance master, and one of the most influential architects in the Western world. His concepts have been translated into a sophisticated estate that surrounds you with luxurious details that satisfy all your desires for relaxation and recreation in an elegant, yet comfortable manner.

The main house shares the architectural design of the cottage and special design details abound. The ground floor has a full kitchen with birdseye maple cabinets, a Wolf range and oven, stainless appliances, a dishwasher and concrete counters with an adjoining dining area.

A faux painted arch opens to the large living room and its soft burnt umber walls, travertine floors and Venetian Murano lights that hang from a vaulted ceiling. Spend some quiet time in front of the fireplace as you enjoy the comfortable seating arrangement. Double doors lead out to a café table and chairs that face the central fountain.

The bathroom is on the main floor and features a tiled, glass-front shower, and a freestanding vanity with an ultra-modern sink on a “floating” concrete counter.

Tile floors in the entryway and the stairs are coated with a copper patina for a subtle metallic sheen. A bedroom suite occupies the entire second story with its views of the hillsides and glass doors that open to a “Juliet” balcony, which overlooks the central fountain. A king bed, desk and seating area make this a tranquil place to unwind.

The estate's owners reside on the property and are available to assist you in planning your visit, but are far enough away to provide you with complete privacy.

The cottage complies will all county vacation rental ordinances (Vacation Rental License No: LIC24-0080).

Out of This World
We wanted to get out of the city for a few days of quiet relaxation. It was the perfect spot to be cozy inside the beautifully appointed guest house or enjoy outdoors at a nearby state park. The hosts were friendly and attentive. The property matched the description and then some! We highly recommend staying in this lovely place.

Peaceful paradise
Truly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful place. We slept so well, with windows open and cool temperatures at night. Waking up to total peace with only turkeys, squirrels, and bird sounds. Loved watching the deer on the property and having such privacy. Joshua was the perfect host and we had everything we could have ever needed. I highly recommend this beautiful place and hope to return myself in the very near future.

A very romantic and peaceful setting. After one night it felt like our own home away from home. Hosts fine gentlemen. The local Deers paid a visit every morning outside our window. Stars at night.

Just Incredible
This rental was perfection. Joshua and Tim clearly take so much pride in their property, it was exactly the backdrop we needed for a wine country getaway. The rental itself is even better in person than the pictures portray. In addition, Joshua was so helpful offering up advice on wineries and restaurants whenever my wife or I solicited his help. Such an excellent host! If you're going on vacation in the Sonoma area and looking at this place, just stop searching and book it. You will not regret it at all.

Best Ever
We have traveled to a lot of places in U.S. and abroad. This is flat out one of the nicest places we have ever been. It is like an old Italian villa with modern electronics. There is a long winding road to access the house which makes it a bit difficult to find the first time, but becomes quite easy with repetition. It makes a perfect getaway. The only unusual aspect was the bathroom was on the first floor, but overall we loved it. Wine and cheese greeted us when we arrived and coffee beans were there for the grinder. What could be better?

Cet endroit est simplement fabuleux. Une propriété magnifique située au bout d’une petite route tortueuse en pleine campagne. Tranquillité assurée. La qualité de la construction et le mobilier sont exceptionnelle. Nous avons été très bien accueillis. Joshua a répondu rapidement lorsqu’une question lui était posée. Pour cuisiner, il y a tout ce qu’il faut, l’équipement de cuisine est complet, moderne et les couteaux bien aiguisés! C’est parfait, il n’y a pas d’autres mots.

My wife and I had the privilege of staying at this wonderful property in Glen Ellen. The cottage is beautiful and perfect for a couple with all the comforts of home. The location is secluded and quiet yet just a short drive to restaurants and local area wineries. The best part were the super hospitable and attentive property owners. Easy to communicate with and genuinely concerned about the quality of our stay. We can't say enough about this great find and will be returning in the future...6 star rating!!!

Delightful charming getaway!
Starting with the first message from our host Joshua, I could sense this was going to be a special stay. Joshua was so helpful supplying information about the property, the area and had great ideas for activities. The property is just as shown in the photos; beautiful, spacious, and comfortable with a super relaxed vibe. It feels quiet, remote and isolated and at the same time is in a perfect location to easily access all that the Sonoma and Napa Valleys have to offer. Joshua is the perfect host and we can't wait to return! -Rick and Beth

Glen Ellen is a wonderful spot, not as crazy as Napa and with all necessary amenities. This Tuscan villa is so beautiful and the property is charming and remote.
