Tucked beneath towering redwood trees on a quiet in-town Sonoma street, 582 3rd Street East offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and effortless, convenient access to everything downtown Sonoma has to offer. A hedge-lined front garden sets the tone from the moment you arrive, functioning as its own private outdoor living room. Deep shade from the redwoods keeps the space cool on hot afternoons, while the same spot transforms into a front-row seat for sunset and, after dark, a canopy of stars so vivid it feels like standing inside a planetarium. Open the side gates and the property unfolds further still, flowing from the front garden through a dedicated dining and barbecue area and on to the pool. Poolside, a custom-built firepit anchors the space, its wide surround built for holding plates and drinks, alongside a deep sectional that invites long conversations, quiet reading, or an afternoon nap in the open air. The pool itself is built with a submerged shelf for lounge chairs and an umbrella, ideal for relaxing with your feet in the water while looking out to the redwoods beyond. A window from the adjoining pool house opens directly onto the yard, turning the space into an easy bar setup for watching the game, while the driveway offers plenty of room for cornhole, ping pong, or whatever else backyard game night calls for. That pool house is a legal ADU, fully insulated, heated and cooled by its own mini-split system, comfortable through Sonoma's hottest and coldest days alike. Whether used as a guest suite, a private office, or a source of rental income, it adds a layer of flexibility that's hard to find this close to town. And close to town it is: a quiet, tree-lined street puts the Sonoma Farmers Market, restaurants, and the Plaza itself close by, with convenient access, letting you enjoy the best of in-town Sonoma living without ever needing to get in the car.
