About Sonoma Farmhouse

Sonoma Farmhouse began in 2000 when Wayne Sobon and Bob McDonald purchased the original 1890's Victorian bungalow and vacation rental at 446 Third Street West. This home's charm, location within the historic district and walking proximity to the Sonoma Plaza made it an ideal second home and vacation rental.

About Sonoma Farmhouse Town

The main home and upgrades to the cottage and water tower were completed prior to their arrival. The renovations were sympathetic with the home's original interior and exterior features. The landscaping and its garden pathways were upgraded after its purchase and the original vineyard was replanted with Cabarnet grapes which provide the fruit for our Sonoma Farmhouse brand wines, which are also a complimentary gift for all visitors.

Sonoma Farmhouse Town is identified as an historic structure by the Sonoma League of Historic Preservation and has been featured on the Sonoma League's home and garden tour. It was also the childhood home of actor Lloyd Bridges.

About Sonoma Farmhouse Ranch

The Sonoma Farmhouse Ranch property was originally part of the Sonoma Farmhouse Town acreage. In 1950, it was subdivided and a new ranch house was built on one half acre. The property and home was never cared for and was on the path for demonlition when purchase by Bob and Wayne in 2010. Renovations began immediately and the remodel, landscape and pool were finished in 2011. The architectural renovation was thoughtful to the original mid-century California architectural design.

The City of Sonoma approved a vacation rental permit in the spring of 2011.
