(FOX BUSINESS) – When Jenny Hess visited her sister in Healdsburg, California, in May 2020 to get out of New York City during the pandemic, she was entranced by the area’s temperate weather, natural beauty and sophisticated food and wine culture.
The attraction endured – even when she had to flee for 12 days due to a raging wildfire behind her sister’s house.
So last October, weeks after the evacuation, Hess bought a 2,000-square-foot, three-bedroom, 3½-bath, fully furnished, renovated Victorian cottage three blocks from downtown Healdsburg for nearly $2.3 million.
