8703 Mill Creek Road

A respectful affinity for nature and a desire to create a restorative modernist retreat was the inspiration behind this impressive collaboration between owner and San Francisco based Feldman Architects. Rarely do you find a home that so skillfully merges the best of modernist architecture with the casualness of country living. This private Healdsburg retreat, located just 20 minutes west of town, is situated on approximately 28 hillside acres. The sleek modernist aesthetics of the main residence took cues from an existing contemporary guest house to create comfortable and purposeful spaces strategically positioned to capture panoramic views and the magic of a sunrise.
The main residence sits like a glass pavilion gently placed in nature's environment. Strong exterior design elements of concrete walls and steel columns frame delicate double-height glass walls on three sides, seamlessly uniting indoor-outdoor transitions. The precision in the detail of the minimalism is genius with concealed service areas, lofty volume, organic elements, neutral palettes, warm woods, and soft light. The two-level home features an uncomplicated lower level with a great room that opens the entire width, connecting to resort-style outdoor amenities; 12' x 50' lap pool, stainless steel spa, cedar cabana/arbor and sauna, granite pavers and expansive patios. The primary bedroom suite and office, or additional guest accommodations, are located upstairs and offer a restful space with majestic views from coastal ridges to Mount St. Helena.
The guest house, built as a modern cabin in 2002 features a timeless contemporary styling on two levels with living and kitchen living room, open to the patio and pool, on the main and bedroom and bath downstairs. Vaulted ceilings, extensive glass, slate tile, maple floors, central HVAC and marble kitchen counters and kitchen island with bar seating make this an ideal accommodation for weekend guests. The impressive dwellings, anchored by lush greenery within a Zen-like hillside setting features a fenced flower and vegetable garden, olive orchard, hundreds of flowering fruit trees, birds, honeybees, and butterflies.
