A Sunny Monte Rio Property Close to the Russian River
One of the first things you notice about this property is the sunshine.
Anyone familiar with Russian River real estate knows how dramatically sunlight can vary from one neighborhood — or even one side of a street — to another. Many Russian River properties are surrounded by towering redwoods and heavily shaded hillsides.
19108 Church Street has a very different feel.
The property offers a sunny, relatively level setting with established fruit trees, room for gardening and generous outdoor areas. If having sunshine and usable land are important parts of your Russian River home search, this property deserves a closer look.
You’re also just a short walk from downtown Monte Rio and the Russian River, making it easy to enjoy the restaurants, local businesses, community and recreation that make Monte Rio such a unique Sonoma County town.
Lots of Space and a Flexible Interior Layout
The main residence offers an unusually flexible two-level layout.
The current physical configuration lives as approximately four bedrooms and four bathrooms, with substantial living space on both levels. The home also includes multiple decks, additional attic space and plenty of areas that could work for visiting family, friends, working from home, hobbies or simply having room to spread out.
The lower level includes a kitchen and dining area, living space, bedroom, auxiliary room and bathrooms.
Upstairs you'll find another large living area, additional bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen space, along with access to outdoor decks and the upper attic area.
Heating and air conditioning are handled by multi-zone mini-split systems, and the property also includes seller-owned solar panels.
Three Garage Spaces and RV Parking
Storage can be difficult to find in Monte Rio and throughout the Russian River area, which makes this property's parking and garage setup another major feature.
There are three garage spaces, including garage areas at the front and side of the residence.
There is also a large driveway with RV access, creating room for vehicles, motorcycles, bicycles, kayaks, tools, workshop space and the recreational equipment that often comes with living near the Russian River and Sonoma Coast.
Outdoor Living, Hot Tub and Gardening Space
The large parcel gives you considerably more usable outdoor space than you might expect from a home this close to downtown Monte Rio.
There are multiple decks and outdoor living areas, a hot tub, established landscaping and fruit trees, along with sunny areas that could be ideal for gardening.
The property extends all the way from Church Street to C Street, providing access from both sides of the parcel.
That combination of location, usable land and outdoor space is relatively unusual this close to the center of Monte Rio.
And There Are a Few Surprises
One of the most interesting parts of 19108 Church Street is what you'll find toward the rear of the property.
Beyond the main residence are several additional existing structures, including a small studio-style structure, a cabin and a mobile home.
These areas add another dimension to an already unusual Russian River property and create a variety of possibilities for how a future owner might use and enjoy the property.
As with any property containing additional structures or improvements, buyers should independently investigate and verify permitting, approved uses, square footage and other property characteristics important to their purchase.

Is 19108 Church Street Right for You?
This property isn't your typical Monte Rio home.
It offers a combination of space, sunshine, usable land, multiple garage spaces, RV access, outdoor living areas, solar and an exceptionally flexible layout in a location just minutes from the Russian River.
For buyers who have been searching Monte Rio homes for sale and finding properties that are too small, too shaded or don't provide enough usable outdoor space, 19108 Church Street offers something very different.
