Close by the borders of Marin County’s famed Muir Woods and the GG National Recreation Area, this private and luxurious residence built in 1990 features a gated drive that leads to this beautifully designed East Coast Styled 4+ bedroom home of nearly 4200 sq.ft. Sited on gorgeous grounds totaling over half an acre yet, despite the proximity of the modern world all around, the property maintains an air of grace and charm, remaining a peaceful place of simple beauty.
Inside, the open floorplan embraces spacious rooms tailored for both formal and casual living and large-scale entertaining. Fireplaces glow invitingly in the step-down living and family rooms and set a particularly elegant stage with custom wood built-ins, view balconies, with windows that face views of the ocean, hills, bridges and San Francisco Bay.
Elegance prevails too in the formal dining room where crown moldings add a grace note of old-world sophistication. The well- equipped chef’s kitchen includes ample space for informal meals with granite clad counters and work island and top of the line SS gourmet appliances with a sun-drenched breakfast area opening out onto generous view decks perfect for al-fresco dining.
Bright, airy rooms with abundant windows welcome in sunshine and sweet breezes throughout with spacious decking that opens directly out from the kitchen/family room where one can while away on a lazy afternoon overlooking the sprawling lawn and gorgeous vistas of the bay and hills and mountains beyond. A privately situated hot tub/spa intensifies the feeling of warmth and shelter that this home so eloquently expresses.
On the top level enjoy unsurpassed views from the primary suite with its luxurious bath and walk-in closet areas that reigns over 3 additional bedrooms and full bath on this floor.
As magnificent as the house itself is, the generous grounds include extensive landscaping with a spacious lawn-area and a multitude of flowering shrubs and specimen trees that capture the essence of this special residence. Perfectly located this home is just a stone’s throw from world class hiking and biking trails, Mt. Tamalapais and famed Muir Woods. Muir Beach and Stinson Beach are just a short drive over the hill.
