Welcome to Mulberry House, a custom-built Modern Craftsman sanctuary in the very heart of Yountville – Napa Valley’s most walkable, food-centric wine village. Designed and furnished by Kenneth Raymond Design, this single-level home blends bespoke design with the warmth of a true wine-country retreat. Soaring ceilings, a dramatic glass wall opening to the back deck, and carefully curated finishes create a space that feels both luxurious and deeply relaxing.
Step outside and you’re just minutes (on foot!) from Thomas Keller’s restaurants, world-class tasting rooms, bakeries, boutiques, and charming neighborhood parks. Sip your morning coffee on the deck, spend the day exploring wineries, then stroll to dinner at Bouchon or The French Laundry and wander home under the stars.
The Space
Mulberry House is a beautifully appointed single-level home thoughtfully planned for couples, families, and small groups who appreciate design, comfort, and ease. High ceilings throughout create a generous sense of volume and light. Wide-plank French oak floors, custom cabinetry, curated art, and layered lighting set a calm, elevated tone. Comfortable seating is oriented around the indoor–outdoor flow – perfect for long conversations, a glass of wine, or a quiet night in.
A dramatic glass wall in the great room opens to the rear deck, blurring the line between interior and outdoor living. Multiple seating areas invite you to linger over morning espresso, al fresco lunches, and twilight wine tastings. The entire space is designed to feel like a private resort, yet with all the comforts of home.
Gourmet Kitchen & Dining
This is a home built for people who love to cook, gather, and linger around the table. The chef’s kitchen features high-end, built-in appliances including double ovens, an integrated refrigerator and freezer, 2 dishwasher drawers, and wine refrigerator. Gorgeous stone countertops, custom cabinetry, and thoughtful storage make longer stays effortless.
The kitchen is fully equipped with quality cookware, dinnerware, and essentials you’d expect in a luxury rental – from coffee options and barware to sharp knives and handsome serving pieces. The open-concept dining and living layout keeps everyone connected, whether you’re plating a cheese board or uncorking the next bottle. Easy flow from kitchen to great room to deck makes entertaining a joy.
Bedrooms & Bath Retreats
Mulberry House sleeps guests in three beautifully appointed bedrooms all on one level. Each room is designed with comfort and calm in mind, with quality mattresses, layered linens, and thoughtful lighting. The spa-like bathrooms feel more boutique hotel than typical vacation rental, with premium finishes and generous storage.
The primary suite offers direct access to the rear deck for quiet morning or evening escapes. A walk-in closet provides ample space for longer stays, and a private beverage center and wet bar with sink is a convenient spot to chill wine or prepare coffee before joining the rest of the house. The en-suite bath includes double sinks, stone counters, a large shower with multiple shower heads, and carefully chosen fixtures that add to the sense of retreat.
Additional guest bedrooms share a well-appointed bath, ideal for couples, friends, or older children. An elegant powder room near the main living area adds convenience for day guests and easy access from the common spaces.
Outdoor Living
The rear yard and decks are designed as an extension of the great room – a true Napa indoor–outdoor experience. Covered and uncovered deck zones provide both sun and shade. Lounge seating invites you to enjoy morning reading, sunset cocktails, and evenings under soft lighting. Professionally landscaped front and back yards with irrigation and low-maintenance plantings create a polished backdrop, while full wood fencing enhances privacy.
Comfort, Technology & Sustainability
Mulberry House was built with a focus on energy efficiency, comfort, and modern convenience. Central heating and cooling keep the home comfortable year-round, while energy-efficient appliances and upgraded insulation support a lighter footprint. A whole-house water filtration system provides high-quality water throughout. In-home laundry with stacked washer and dryer, cabinetry, and a utility sink make longer stays easy.
The home includes up-to-date fire and smoke detection, carbon monoxide monitoring, and modern code-compliant construction, offering peace of mind during your stay.
Parking & EV-Friendly
An attached two-car garage, with an EV charging outlet, plus additional driveway parking, makes arrival and daily excursions simple. The home is on a quiet residential street just a short walk from the lively center of town, so you can park the car and forget about it if you choose.
Walkable Yountville Location
One of the greatest luxuries of Mulberry House is its location. You’re in Yountville, widely considered the most walkable town in Napa Valley. From the front door, you can stroll to Thomas Keller’s restaurants and bakeries, multiple wine tasting rooms, local bars, cafés, art galleries, boutiques on charming Washington Street. Parks, paths, and the wider Napa Valley are all at your doorstep.
Leave the car in the driveway, wander to dinner, and simply stroll home. No need to navigate traffic or parking after a long tasting day – this is wine country at its most relaxed and enjoyable.
Guest Experience & Service
Mulberry House is designed to feel like your personal Napa Valley residence, not a generic rental. During your stay you’ll enjoy self check-in with a detailed home guide, high-speed internet, and thoughtfully placed outlets. The kitchen is fully stocked with essentials to get you started, and quality linens, towels, and amenities are consistent with a luxury home.
Optional enhancements, subject to availability and advance arrangement, may include pre-arrival grocery stocking, private chef services or in-home wine tastings, additional housekeeping or turndown service, and local recommendations customized to your interests.
Ideal For
Mulberry House is perfect for food and wine lovers wanting to walk to world-class dining, couples’ getaways and special celebrations, small groups who appreciate design, architecture, and thoughtful details, and longer stays where you want a true “home base” in Napa Valley, not just a hotel room.
We look forward to welcoming you to Mulberry House and helping you experience Yountville the way locals do – on foot, with a great glass of wine in hand, and the best of Napa Valley just a short stroll away.
