Property Description
The back of this Bret Harte home faces the Southern Heights Ridge, and every room on that side of the house knows it. From the deck off the living room to the three-tiered patio along the side of the home, the views of the ridge are the kind that make you stop what you're doing. This is a home built around where it sits. The owners renovated thoughtfully when they purchased in 2012, starting with a primary suite on the lower level, complete with a new ensuite bath and walk-in closet. Upstairs, the second bathroom was fully remodeled with a freestanding tub and walk-in shower. Both bathrooms are taken to the height of luxury with heated floors. The kitchen features solid wood cabinets, a Fisher & Paykel fridge and range, and a Bosch dishwasher. Owned Tesla solar (Net Meter 2.0) keeps the energy bills in check, and french drains help keep the water away from the house. The 8,400 sq ft lot has room to breathe: a deck off the main living area, three tiers of patio off the separate kitchen door and the lower suite, two outdoor storage rooms, and paved access to additional storage beneath the home. For a four-bedroom house, the storage here is genuinely exceptional. The neighborhood is known for its quiet, hilly terrain and a community that skews toward hiking, gardening, biking, and the outdoors. Mt. Tam's 200 miles of trails are a short drive away, and freeway access keeps San Francisco well within reach. At $1,299,000, this is a rare opportunity to own a fully renovated, energy-independent home with ridge views in one of Marin's most coveted neighborhoods.
