With its location close to the top of a legendary mountain, a design that evokes the warmth of a forest lodge, and a colorful – even roguish – history, Top O’ the World just might have some of the best bragging rights in all of Sonoma County.

Between Two World-Renowned Wine Valleys

The 5BR/4.5BA house rises from a meadow 2,100 feet up the side of Mt. Veeder – a peak whose appellation has appeared on bottles of some of the world’s finest cabernet sauvignons. Surrounded by grasses and dense woods of fir, cedar, oak, maple and manzanita, the 5,000-square foot house sits at the confluence of two seasonal creeks and is steps away from a year-round spring-fed lake.

Design: A Great Room Before Its Time

Top O’ the World’s interior was (and remains) a “great room” (2,400 square feet) long before that concept and terminology came into general use. While the house’s massive Douglas fir support columns and beams serve to divide the first floor into several discrete areas – kitchen, dining area, living room, office and family area (the latter has its own small private deck) – everybody remains within sight of everybody else. The space is totally congenial to socializing, yet affords places where guests or family members can stay in view but away from the social whirl for awhile if they choose.
