Secluded Vineyard Estate Healdsburg

Mill Creek Estate is an exceptional Vineyard Estate located in the heart of the Sonoma Wine Country near the quaint town of Healdsburg and less than 6 minutes from the historic, upscale, and charming Downtown Plaza.

If extreme privacy is what you enjoy this is the place for your wine country vacation experience.

Reminiscent of homes built in early California, this 4 bedroom Estate has lots of exterior and interior stonework providing the perfect marriage of old world country charm and a casual, elegant California lifestyle. The living structures are tucked sensitively into the landscape under a canopy of trees which includes mature 500-year-old oaks. Designed for gracious country living, inside you will find walls of luxurious venetian plaster, vaulted and cathedral ceilings, wood and limestone flooring and abundant windows throughout the house. The views from inside the house are as breathtaking as the views from outside.
Mill Creek Vineyard Estate is the perfect place for family and friends to gather in a relaxing atmosphere of comfort and serenity. Surrounded by spacious terraces, gardens and lawn covered areas, this is the ideal vacation home for those who cherish the outdoors. With most rooms opening onto outside terraces you’re never more than a step away from natural serenity. With 2 covered Arbors and many other sitting areas to choose from, you will find just the right spot to savor a spectacular sunset, read in the afternoon sun or enjoy a candlelight dinner on a warm summer’s evening.
