Modern tech, elegant design
Luxury at Sonoma’s Mockingbird Lane development
Amile from Sonoma’s iconic town square rests Mockingbird Lane, a DeNova Homes community of luxury residences starting in the low $1 millions.
With five different home styles to choose from and floor plans ranging in size from 1,813 to 2,536 square feet, Mockingbird Lane offers a variety of configurations to suit a wide array of lifestyles.
Each thoughtfully designed twostory comes equipped with smart home technology and ecoconscious design elements. Using a bespoke material palette arranged by designers, buyers can customize various finishes and fixtures to personalize their Mockingbird Lane home.
Buyers can opt for either Bertazzoni or Thermador kitchen appliances, as well as washers and dryers by LG or Electrolux. There’s also the ability to add builtin cabinetry and choose its hardware. Closet organizers are available, along with interior paint selections. There’s even the ability to add chandeliers, pendant lights and ceiling fans.
Polished chrome fixtures adorn the bathrooms, with spacaliber owner’s suites enjoying soaking tubs, large showers and walkin closets.
Designed with an eye towards green living, Mockingbird Lane homes come with LED lighting, dualzone airconditioning, tankless water heaters and dualglazed windows. The garages are prewired for electric vehicle chargers and solar energy helps power the homes.
In addition to highend thermostats and video doorbells, Mockingbird Lane homes feature an array of smart home technologies, like universal data outlets, Cat5E Internet in the living room and RG6 cable wiring in the living and bedrooms.
Constructed in the cottage and Sonoma Craftsman styles, architectural flourishes include timber trims and stone accents along the facades. Topped by ceramic tile roofs, the homes of Mockingbird Lane are built to last.
Of Mockingbird Lane’s 16 homes, 12 of them include guest cottages with full kitchens and bathrooms, providing residents with the potential for rental income.
