A new village for families & friends building a bright future, & a new neighborhood in Cloverdale
Subscribe for updates →We're building a walkable village 90 mins north of San Francisco!
We are in contract to purchase an extraordinary site with stunning views of the Mayacamas Mountains in the city limits of the charming town of Cloverdale.
This site has been approved for development for 20 years. It is governed by an Existing Plan that already allows for retail, office, hundreds of homes, a flagship hotel, a private golf course, and some light industrial uses.
As of early 2026, we are working to update the existing approvals to our Revised Plan to use less water, provide more public access, better respond to the current market, and better align with Cloverdale's values and goals.

Our vision is to build walkable, compact village made up of an extraordinary resort hotel, vibrant community-oriented piazza, up to 605 residences, community event spaces, and a publicly-accessible open space network filled with trails, playgrounds, and sports fields.
We are targeting approvals of this Revised Plan by the summer of 2026.

"Edge Esmeralda was one of the weirdest, wildest, most ambitious, most unexpected, & most fun things I've ever watched unfold in Healdsburg." — Simone Wilson
"Families with kids are also welcome [...] & childcare is available, in addition to activities for families throughout the month. One area of focus is to integrate family life with a creative life." — Vincent Vitale
"[Esmeralda is] a modern reinvention of the Chautauqua community [Devon] cherished growing up, and we explore her fascinating work building communities and reimaging how we live together." — Patrick O'Shaughnessy
"Esmeralda will be about one-third the size of the development that the Alexander Valley Resort would have been, with a large emphasis on keeping open space, parkland, and trails available for public use." — Amie Windsor
