Income Producing Calistoga Compound
a gated estate on seventeen acres in calistoga′s western hills, set at 1,200 feet in a valley of its own. a six-bedroom california ranch-style main home wraps a heated pool and spa, with views to the mayacamas from nearly every angle. a private family resort, with this degree of seclusion, this close to the valley floor, almost never comes available. the property has operated as a sought-after vacation rental generating remarkable income that the new owner is positioned to pursue. few estates offer privacy at this scale. fewer still arrive having a track record of notable earning potential. the approach climbs through the gentle hills to a gate, and past it, to a property that reveals itself slowly. the main home opens to a great room beneath high ceilings, warm oak underfoot, an eat-in kitchen anchored by a single slab of ancient california walnut, and indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces that flow into one another. the great room looks over a lawn shaded by old black and live oaks. set apart from the main house is the modsita, a private, high-end two-bedroom guest residence with its own pool. it gives the estate a second center of gravity: a place for guests to stay without intruding, a retreat for the owner, or the quarters that let the main home earn while its owner remains on the land. a tennis court, solar with backup power, and reverse-osmosis water treatment complete a property built to run independently on a remarkable infrastructure base. it is uncommon for a single property to hold the potential for a family retreat, a private compound for guests, and an estate that has shown it can support itself. all of it gated, at moderate elevation, a short drive from the valley floor, and all at the owner′s discretion.
