1523 Sperring Road, Sonoma, California

The Estate

A quieter
kind of luxury.

Hidden along one of Sonoma's most storied country roads, 1523 Sperring Road is an estate shaped by a rarer kind of luxury, one rooted in privacy, beauty, and the experience of living well.

Set beyond a long approach lined by an original walnut orchard, the property unfolds gradually across the valley floor. Rolling hills rise in every direction, vineyards stretch across the surrounding landscape, and the outside world begins to disappear. Though only minutes from Sonoma Plaza, the estate feels deeply removed, secluded within a pocket of generational properties known primarily to those who truly know Sonoma.

Conceived and built by Landers Curry Inc., designed by architect Luke Tyler of Field Issue Design + Architecture, in collaboration with Christine Curry Design, the home was imagined as a place where architecture and daily life exist in effortless harmony. Craftsmanship is felt before it is seen, and every detail was designed to create an atmosphere that feels both timeless and deeply livable.

Sophisticated yet understated, 1523 Sperring captures a more authentic expression of wine country living, warm, grounded, and built to last. Set on the valley floor among vineyards and open land, the estate offers a measure of separation and defensible space rare among Wine Country’s hillside properties, built not just for today, but for the next hundred years.

The Land

Light from every direction.

South

The front entry, living room, kitchen, and breakfast banquette welcome the low winter sun as it spills into the house, filling the rooms with warmth and that golden light that makes a home feel alive.

East

The bedrooms greet the day. Morning light arrives softly through the windows while hot air balloons rise over the valley and the smell of coffee begins drifting through the house.

West

Summer evenings put on their show. The sun settles behind the Sonoma hills, casting long shadows and warm colors across the landscape as the day slowly unwinds.

North

The gentlest light of all, never harsh, never demanding. The covered pavilion, living room, dining room, and primary suite all enjoy this exposure, looking back across the Valley of the Moon and its ever-changing tapestry of vineyards, oaks, and open sky.

"A rare valley-floor setting with nearly 360-degree views, where every window offers a different experience of light, season, and place. A home that stays connected to the landscape from sunrise to sunset."

Design Philosophy

Built to be lived in.

1523 Sperring Road was designed around a simple but increasingly rare idea: that a home should not only be beautiful, but deeply lived in.

Conceived through the collaboration of Landers Curry Inc., architect Luke Tyler of Field Issue Design + Architecture, and Christine Curry Design, the estate reflects decades of craftsmanship, travel, and an intuitive understanding of how people naturally gather, relax, and connect within a space.

Inspired by classic turn-of-the-century San Francisco homes and reinterpreted for wine country living, the design balances timeless architecture with warmth, livability, and ease.

Rather than designing for spectacle alone, every element was shaped around experience, how light moves throughout the day, how rooms transition into one another, and the subtle details that influence the rhythm of everyday life.

Wide-plank hardwood flooring runs throughout the home, with herringbone detailing in the entry and dining room. Multiple sets of French doors dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, allowing the living spaces to open effortlessly to the surrounding landscape and covered outdoor terraces beyond.

Layered lighting throughout the home was designed to shift with the day, bright and natural in the morning, warm and atmospheric by evening.

Landers Curry Inc.

General Contractor

With more than four decades of experience building some of Northern California’s most exceptional custom homes, Jon Curry is widely recognized for his rare ability to merge craftsmanship, creativity, and thoughtful execution into homes that feel both timeless and deeply intentional.

For 1523 Sperring Road, Jon’s vision extended far beyond construction alone. Every element of the estate was approached through the lens of how a home should truly live, how people move through a space, how architecture interacts with the surrounding landscape, and how design decisions made during the building process ultimately shape the everyday experience of the home itself.

Known for his meticulous attention to detail and highly hands-on approach, Jon played an integral role in shaping not only the quality of the build, but the emotional character of the property. From architectural detailing and spatial flow to the seamless integration of indoor-outdoor living, every aspect of the estate reflects decades of experience and an intuitive understanding of what makes a home feel extraordinary.

More than simply a newly constructed residence, 1523 Sperring Road stands as a reflection of deeply considered craftsmanship, thoughtfully built, beautifully executed, and designed to endure for generations.

Christine Curry Design

Interior Design

Christine Curry’s design philosophy is rooted in a simple belief: a well-designed home should feel as beautiful as it is functional, creating spaces that naturally support the way people live, gather, and unwind. For 1523 Sperring Road, every material, finish, and architectural detail was selected to create an atmosphere that feels warm, timeless, and deeply livable, a home designed not simply to impress, but to be experienced.

Her vision for the estate centered around creating interiors that feel calming, intuitive, and enduring. A rich yet restrained palette, layered textures, natural materials, and thoughtful lighting were carefully curated to allow the home itself to feel both sophisticated and effortless, equally suited for quiet mornings, intimate dinners, or weekends filled with family and guests.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen reflects Christine’s philosophy perfectly: beautiful enough to admire, yet designed entirely around how people naturally gather and live. Throughout the estate, every space was approached with the belief that true luxury lies not in excess, but in creating an environment that feels deeply personal and entirely effortless.

For buyers seeking to continue that same vision, Christine Curry Design offers the rare opportunity to thoughtfully complete the home’s furnishing and interior design experience, allowing the next owner to fully realize the lifestyle this estate was originally intended to inspire.

The Architect

Field Issue Design + Architecture

Luke Clark Tyler, Principal Architect

Luke Clark Tyler grew up in Oregon around the construction sites of his father, and the drafting tools of his grandfather. Drawing plans from the time he was little, he eventually formalized that penchant for design and architecture and received his B. Arch from Cornell University.

The beginning of his architectural career was focused on community based projects, starting with a Design Corps Fellowship in Atlanta at the Metro Atlanta TaskForce for the Homeless, the largest shelter in the southeastern US. He later moved to Nairobi to work with the residents of the continent's largest informal settlement and helped Kounkuey Design Initiative develop it's first public space project.

After returning to the US he moved to California and joined the high-end custom residential world he had previously been exposed to when working at Backen & Gillam Architects and later, Wade Design Architects.

In 2014 he started Field Issue Design + Architecture and has enjoyed working directly with homeowners to build their dreams, one home at a time. The scale of residential design provides a level of cherished intimacy, and when paired with the comfort of California living and the beauty of Bay Area landscapes, each project has the power to become a personal paradise.

The Details

Materials & Moments

The Kitchen

A single slab of Calacatta Viola marble anchors the kitchen island, dramatic veining in gold and grey creating a natural focal point. Perimeter counters and both butler's pantries are finished in Absolute Black granite, grounding the space in timeless restraint.

A Wolf range and induction cooktop pair with Sub-Zero refrigeration and a professional Galley sink flanked by dual prep sinks. Fully custom cabinetry, abundant storage, open shelving, and a built-in banquette that allows the kitchen to function as both workspace and gathering place.

Floors

Wide-plank hardwood flooring runs throughout the home, bringing warmth, continuity, and durability. In the entry and dining room, the flooring transitions into a classic herringbone pattern, a subtle nod to old-world craftsmanship.

Bathrooms & Laundry

Bathrooms throughout the home are finished in marble counters, tile flooring, and spa-like tile showers. The laundry room features Neolith counters. Kohler fixtures were selected throughout for their consistency, functionality, and timeless design.

Outdoor Entertaining

A covered outdoor pavilion adds nearly 1,200 SF of additional living space, outfitted with heaters, wired for a TV, sound, fans, a prep area, and a beverage refrigerator with ice maker, it functions as a true year-round room for dining, lounging, and entertaining.

The pool house functions as a dedicated outdoor BBQ and entertainment zone, fully equipped with a grill, sink, beverage refrigerator, Vent-A-Hood system, and Neolith countertops. Its position adjacent to the pool makes it the natural anchor for casual poolside gatherings.

A separate bar station at the main house serves formal outdoor dining. Outfitted with a sink, ice maker, beverage refrigerator, and Neolith countertops, it connects directly to the pantry through operable pass-through windows, allowing the kitchen and outdoor terrace to work as one.

The fire pit, a poured-in-place concrete surround with decorative lava pebbles and a 36" propane burner, anchors the outdoor living area as a gathering point for evenings that stretch long into the night.

"I think you know when a home feels good. There's a sense of peace when the rooms flow as they should, it calms the nervous system to live in a space that is not only beautiful, but functional, with natural light and a strong connection to the outdoors."

The Life

EAT

Food and gathering are deeply woven into the rhythm of life in Sonoma. Along quiet backroads and winding country lanes, roadside farmstands overflow with seasonal produce, fresh flowers, olive oils, and ingredients sourced directly from the surrounding land.

Nearby destinations including Enclos, Valley Bar + Bottle, Glen Ellen Star, Layla, El Dorado Kitchen, and The Girl & The Fig have helped shape Sonoma into one of California's most celebrated culinary communities.

At 1523 Sperring Road, this culture of gathering feels intrinsically connected to the home itself, from mornings collecting fresh ingredients to evenings opening bottles with friends and dining beneath the Sonoma sky.

The Life

DRINK

Sonoma's wine culture has long been defined by a quieter kind of sophistication, one rooted in craftsmanship, land, and a deep respect for the pace of wine country living. Here, some of the region's most celebrated estates remain intentionally understated, hidden among rolling vineyards and winding country roads.

Nearby destinations including Donum, Scribe, Hanzell, Three Sticks, Hamel, and Gundlach Bundschu embody this enduring spirit: architectural beauty without pretension, intimate hospitality, wines shaped by the surrounding landscape itself.

A lifestyle centered less around occasion and more around ritual.
