Set beside North Sonoma Mountain Regional Park, Belden Barns brings together vineyard ownership, country living, and a distinctive wine and culinary opportunity on 55 acres. With established vineyards, a working farm, historic barns, and two residences, this Sonoma County estate offers both an inviting retreat and a foundation for its next chapter. The agricultural landscape includes 20 acres of vineyards planted to premium Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and other varietals, with an additional 10 acres available for planting. Another 3.5 acres are dedicated to fresh produce, complemented by a 1.5-acre fruit orchard and an 18-acre-foot reservoir. On-site farmers supply some of the Bay Area's celebrated Michelin-starred restaurants, connecting the estate to the region's renowned culinary community. Vested permits allow production of up to 10,000 cases of wine and processing of up to 10,000 pounds of cheese. Approved architectural plans encompass a 10,941-square-foot winery and tasting room facility and a separate 3,033-square-foot hospitality and creamery facility. Together with permitted appointment-only tastings and a commercial kitchen, these approvals provide a compelling framework for bringing wine, food, and agriculture together in one setting. The five-bedroom main residence offers a comfortable home base, with a pool, sauna, and hot tub for relaxing after a day among the vines. A newly built second dwelling adds flexibility, while historic barns lend character and a tangible connection to the property's agricultural roots. Approximately a 50-minute drive from the Golden Gate Bridge, Belden Barns combines an established wine identity with residential amenities, diverse farming operations, and substantial potential for future development under its approved plans. It is an opportunity to carry forward a distinctive Sonoma estate while bringing a personal vision to its future.
