A Rare Sonoma Valley Offering
18935 5th Street West, Sonoma, California
Presenting The Chalet, an extraordinary Sonoma property offering a rare combination of history, character, versatility, and location. Originally built in 1940, this distinctive wine country compound has evolved into a remarkable collection of residences while retaining the charm and character of its heritage. With a total of seven bedrooms and seven baths, The Chalet presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a truly unique piece of Sonoma Valley.
The property is comprised of a main residence and three separate guest cottages, creating an exceptional setting for a private wine country compound, multigenerational retreat, or hospitality-oriented use. With its seven-bedroom, seven-bath configuration, the property provides an unusual degree of flexibility for accommodating family, friends, and guests. The Chalet also offers the opportunity to operate as a bed-and-breakfast, subject to verification of current permits, licensing, and applicable regulations.
Immediately available for purchase, The Chalet enjoys an enviable location close to the historic Sonoma Plaza, placing celebrated restaurants, tasting rooms, boutiques, galleries, and the rich cultural history of Sonoma within easy reach. Yet the property maintains the atmosphere and privacy of a secluded wine country retreat.
Adding considerably to its appeal is a combination of infrastructure that is increasingly difficult to find in a property of this character. The Chalet benefits from both public water and public sewer, along with natural gas available through PG&E—a particularly valuable combination for a multi-residence property.
With its 1940 origins, seven bedrooms, seven baths, main residence, three guest cottages, hospitality potential, and exceptional Sonoma location, The Chalet represents far more than a traditional real estate offering. It is an opportunity to acquire a distinctive Sonoma Valley property with history, flexibility, character, and remarkable future potential.
