About this home

Just reduced - Truly the best equestrian luxury property under $7.5m. Set against the backdrop of breathtaking Santa Rosa Valley, Rocking Horse Ranch is a 21-acre dream estate that strikes the perfect chord. Tucked within a private, gated equestrian enclave where bridle paths weave through the community, this Country French-style retreat is more than just a home - it's a lifestyle. Step inside the 6,731-square-foot main house and find a harmony of style and space, boasting 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. This estate knows how to entertain, with beautifully landscaped areas (designed by Wendy Harper of Gardens of the World) that provide the perfect setting for hosting everything from intimate get-togethers to crowd-pleasing outdoor events. A detached (approx) 1200 sf 2-level pool/guest house/recording studio with living space, bath area, kitchen and laundry area overlooks it all, is ready to inspire your next composition or host your favorite guests. For the horse enthusiast, the property features a 6-stall barn with turnouts, a mini kitchen/bath, and a tack/sitting room, perfect for pre-ride chats or post-ride cool-downs. The star attraction is the regulation-sized riding arena with grandfathered lights (a rarity in Santa Rosa Valley) and a viewing stand that's ready to host any equestrian performance. There's also a hot walker, washing station, a pony ring and even a luxe chicken coop resort. But it's not all boots and saddles. This estate has plenty of space to kick back and enjoy the good life. Wander through the avocado grove, tend to the greenhouse and rose garden, or perfect your short game on the putting green which doubles as an outdoor venue for movie nights under the stars. And don't miss the gentle fenced path to a lush, flat grass area, perfect for hosting everything from weddings to soccer practice to memorable barbeques while taking in the Santa Rosa Valley views. The main residence presents high ceilings, a custom library/office, a music room, and gathering area with fireplace and sun room that opens onto the spectacular outdoor entertainment spaces. The kitchen is a chef's arena, showcasing Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, 2 Dacor ovens, a 48-inch Thermador stove top w/BBQ, 2 Miele dishwashers, and 2 islands big enough for your entire crew. Nearby, the formal dining room comes complete with a bar and service area, ideal for cocktails and conversation. On the first floor, a full-bedroom suite with a private entrance is perfect for guests or au pair. Upstairs, the primary suite is pure indulgence, with a cozy fireplace, French doors leading to a sprawling balcony, and a mini kitchen for morning coffee or late-night snacks. Five spacious additional bedroom suites complete this level. Four fireplaces and heated floors add to the home's warm appeal while integrated speakers, Creston automation and video security systems supply smart home features at your fingertips. There is an oversized 4-car garage and ample guest parking behind the entry gates. And when the lights go down? Head to the upper-level movie room with a bar, or step out to the exceptional pool and spa area, where a waterfall wall, fire features, and three covered gathering spaces set the stage for unforgettable evenings. The detached outdoor living room features a large fireplace, TV, outdoor kitchen and bar. Whether you're throwing unforgettable pool parties, riding the trails or simply soaking in the sunsets, this estate is where country dreams and artistic inspiration come together in perfect harmony
