778 S Fitch Mountain Rd, Healdsburg, CA 95448

Under a mile from the Healdsburg Plaza, South Fitch Mountain Road bends into oak shade, and this home sits behind that screen of trees, opposite the golf course and private enough that the town feels farther than it is. Set on 0.3368 acres, rare this close to downtown, the 1939 single-level home was extensively remodeled in 2020: three bedrooms, three full baths, and approximately 2,265 square feet, all on one floor. The remodeled kitchen anchors the main level with concrete counters and a restraint that lets the architecture speak. The great room opens beneath a vaulted ceiling, oversized windows framing the yard, the majestic oaks, and the golf course beyond, and a wood-burning fireplace holds the living room through winter. The primary suite sits at one end with generous closets, a marble and tile bath, and an indoor/outdoor shower; a quiet office sits at the other, a split plan that keeps work and rest separate. Single-level flow dissolves the boundary between living space and garden. Outside, a custom in-ground pool anchors the grounds, gas-heated for swimming well into fall, with a gazebo for shade and dinners that run late. The third-acre lot is level, mature, and screened by trees, garden and greenbelt in every direction. Next door, 11-acre Badger Park offers direct Russian River access, one of only two public river-access points in Healdsburg, plus athletic fields, community gardens, a riparian trail, and off-leash dog areas. Must see to appreciate the rare combination of single-level design, a large private lot, and a setting this close to the Plaza and the river.
