Just four minutes from downtown Calistoga—home to Solage, the Four Seasons Resort, and world-renowned Chateau Montelena Winery—this private, gated mid-century ranch-style residence sits quietly along scenic California Highway 128, just outside city limits. The two-acre parcel captures the essence of relaxed Wine Country living, where modern comfort, timeless architecture, and Mediterranean-inspired gardens come together in harmony.

Originally built in 1966 and thoughtfully updated over the years, the property embodies the best of California modern design. The main residence spans approximately 1,700 square feet and features two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Interiors are defined by slate and sisal flooring, custom cherrywood cabinetry, and black Formica countertops that nod to the home’s mid-century roots. The open-concept living and dining area is anchored by a striking wood-burning fireplace, while large windows bring in soft natural light and connect the interior to the gardens and pool beyond.

The kitchen opens to an outdoor dining terrace framed by flowering trellises and mature landscaping. A pergola offers shade by the poolside lounge, creating a seamless indoor–outdoor flow ideal for quiet evenings or entertaining guests. The gardens are richly planted with drought-tolerant species, curated pathways, and irrigated vegetable beds, evoking the relaxed beauty of the Mediterranean while reflecting the sustainable ethos of Napa Valley living.

A detached 400± sq. ft. guest cottage provides flexibility for visiting friends, a private office, or creative retreat. Fully independent, it includes a mini-split heating and cooling system and a full bath, with its own sense of privacy within the garden setting.

At the lower edge of the property, a 1,200± sq. ft. heated workshop or art studio offers generous space for hobbies, projects, or professional pursuits. While not suitable for conversion to a second dwelling, the structure enhances the property’s live/work potential and reinforces its identity as a versatile, creative compound.

Practical amenities include attached covered parking, a heated pool, and a north-facing orientation that brings soft morning light and cool afternoons—ideal for the region’s Mediterranean climate. The property is served by county utilities and lies just beyond the Calistoga city boundary, combining rural privacy with proximity to town conveniences.

Although not short-term-rental eligible, this home’s setting and amenities make it ideal for a Bay Area weekender seeking a restorative escape or for a couple or small family desiring the calm rhythm of full-time Wine Country life.

The atmosphere here is deeply calming—visitors often remark on the serenity of the gardens, the quiet of the surroundings, and the timeless ease of the design. Surrounded by rolling hills and iconic vineyards, with the Palisades and Mount St. Helena as a distant backdrop, the property feels authentically connected to the Napa Valley landscape.

Whether as a mid-century retreat, artist’s sanctuary, or low-maintenance country estate, 3121 CA-128 offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Calistoga’s enduring charm—where architectural integrity, privacy, and natural beauty coexist just minutes from the heart of Wine Country.
