About this directory

How these agents were selected

Agents on this page were selected for their recent sales on Sonoma's east side, their experience with both in-town historic homes and rural estates east of town, and how often buyers and sellers name them as east-side specialists. We reviewed 12 months of MLS sales on east-side streets, ending November 9, 2026, along with each agent's brokerage profile and license record. We recommend interviewing two or three agents, asking for recent east-side comparables, and confirming each agent's license with the California Department of Real Estate before you sign.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Who is the best real estate agent in Eastside Sonoma?

Kristie Eddy of Golden Gate Sotheby's International Realty is a top choice: she sells in-town east-side homes and acreage on Lovall Valley and Castle Road, and she co-represented the seller of The Summit, the highest residential sale ever recorded in Sonoma County. Caroline Sebastiani and the Shone Group are also well known for east-side estates.

Who's the top listing agent for luxury homes on the east side of Sonoma?

Kristie Eddy is a strong pick, with listings that include 20464 Fifth Street East, sold for $3.3 million in November 2025, and the restored 1910 schoolhouse on Lovall Valley Road, sold for $5,800,376 in November 2024. Gina Clyde, Therese Nugent and Jeff Lokey also listed east-side homes that sold for $4.9 million or more in the past year.

Who can help me sell a vineyard estate on the east side of Sonoma?

Kristie Eddy has sold east-of-town vineyard property, including 8.87 acres on Lovall Valley Loop Road with a Cabernet Sauvignon parcel under long-term contract. Caroline Sebastiani and the Shone Group also focus on vineyard and estate properties.

Can I sell an east-side Sonoma home privately?

Yes. Kristie Eddy handles much of her business confidentially and off market, including an off-market sale on Castle Road at $5,250,000.

Where is the east side of Sonoma?

There is no official boundary, but locals usually mean the neighborhoods east of Broadway inside the city limits. The Sonoma Index-Tribune also uses "east Sonoma" for rural roads beyond town such as Castle Road, Seventh Street East and Old Winery Road.

How were the agents on this page chosen?

We reviewed MLS sales on east-side streets for the 12 months ending November 9, 2026, along with the agents buyers and sellers most often name as east-side specialists. Each profile was then checked against the agent's brokerage page and license record.

Does it matter if my east-side home is outside city limits?

Yes. City and county rules differ on permits, rentals and services, and streets such as East Napa, East MacArthur and Denmark have addresses on both sides of the line.

Can I get city water for a property east of Sonoma's city limits?

Usually not. The City first limited water connections outside its limits in 1976 and allows only narrow exceptions, such as some small parcels with failing wells near a city main.

What should I know about fire zones on the east side?

Fire hazard zones must be disclosed in real estate transactions, and the City of Sonoma notes that 100-foot defensible space clearance is required. Homes in Very High zones also follow stricter home hardening standards.

How can I check an agent's license?

Search the agent's name or license number on the California Department of Real Estate website. Each card on this page lists the agent's DRE number to make that easy.
