In the heart of Sonoma, California, find vast vineyards, lush landscapes, and spacious lodgings at The Home Ranch at 1499 Moody Lane.
Represented by The Agency’s Stephanie Domenichelli for the first time on the market in over 40 years, the estate spans 58.38 acres across two parcels. Throughout the main residence, additional houses, a two-story barn, and manicured grounds, the property maintains the warm charm synonymous with wine country living. For those seeking a private retreat in Alexander Valley’s picturesque surroundings, look no further.
Purchased by the late Don Carano and his wife Rhonda in 1981, the property became the birthplace of Ferrari-Carano Vineyards & Winery, a celebrated wine brand that grew to produce over half a million cases per year at its peak.
The Home Ranch is an oasis for cultivating the land and embracing sustainable living. The property features 24.4 acres of Alexander Valley Chardonnay vines, 56 Italian olive trees, a fruit orchard, and dozens of garden beds, offering an opportunity for growing your own produce or homesteading.
With a total of seven bedrooms and four bathrooms, the estate offers ample space for hosting. The main residence features four spacious bedrooms, light-filled living and dining spaces, and an inviting kitchen complete with a cozy fireplace. A two-bedroom guest house and a charming one-bedroom pool house expand the living spaces, making this estate ideal for multigenerational living or guest accommodations.
The 4,800-square-foot, two-story barn provides ample space for hobbies, winemaking, or storing a prized car collection. The pool and adjacent pool house—with an oversized steam shower, and workout room—create a serene escape for relaxation and wellness.
For the wine enthusiast, the temperature-controlled wine cellar will help you curate your personal collection, while artists and entrepreneurs will find inspiration in the detached office or art studio. Outdoor living takes center stage here, with expansive dining and kitchen areas perfect for entertaining under the stars.
The upper portion of the estate offers sweeping views of the valley. Whether you dream of expanding the vineyard, adding a second estate, or simply enjoying the breathtaking landscape from a secluded hilltop, this part of the property allows for future development potential.
Located just one mile from downtown Geyserville and only eight miles from the vibrant culinary scene of downtown Healdsburg, The Home Ranch offers a peaceful retreat while keeping you close to everything you need.
