Paradise Retreat

A unique opportunity presents itself in the offering of this idyllic retreat perfectly sited on 1 (+/-) acre with sweeping views of the San Rafael Bridge and rolling Napa and Sonoma hills;  owned by the same family for 38 years; this magical setting is designed to highlight the 180 degree views of the bay, a daily parade of ships, ferries and sailboats, and serene beauty of the surrounding woods.

Wake up to the sweet sounds of nature, the rustle of deer, seals barking at dusk, and waves gently lapping the shore.  Enjoy spectacular grenadine-hued sunsets and glistening bay moonlit nights making this hillside retreat like no other.

The private driveway leads to the newly renovated parking deck with parking for 2 vehicles and ample additional parking for 7+ cars. The pedestrian bridge takes you to the main residence through wisteria draped wrought iron and lush landscape.

The open floorplan main residence includes the primary suite, guest bedroom, and 2 bathrooms; the 3rd bedroom and bathroom are a legal lower story in-law unit with a separate entrance. The main home is framed for a staircase that could be connected internally to the lower unit if desired. There is a custom-built ‘tiny home’ included in the sale which consists of 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom.

Incorporating all the natural beauty Marin has to offer, the main house features a unique and tasteful architectural design that brings the outdoors in, creating a perfect retreat in harmony with nature

The sophisticated living room and dining room areas feature walls of Anderson view windows, clerestories, high ceilings, Canadian white maple hardwood flooring, a custom-designed Okells wood-burning fireplace with slate hearth and surround, and French doors that open to a delightful IPE entertainment deck offering the ideal place to unwind while enjoying the breathtaking bay views

Designed to capture both water and wooded views, the stunning Lamperti chef’s kitchen boasts an abundance of custom, shaker style, Brookhaven cherry wood cabinetry, center island with seating, cheerful tile backsplash, Thermador gas downdraft range, glass pendant lights and built-in desk

Adjacent to the kitchen is a spacious family room with wooded views and French doors that lead to the charming courtyard patio facing the bay

Relax in the warmth of the primary suite's Vermont Castings Resolute wood-burning stove.   A cozy seating area, Velux skylights (2 of which open), a generous walk-in closet, an office with a garden window and bay views, and an adjoining bathroom with glass mosaic tile accents complete the rejuvenating ambiance

The guest bedroom opens to the private rear yard through french doors and has a lovely view of the woods and blossoming springtime plum and pear trees

The guest bathroom suite showcases a large tiled shower with custom etched glass window and connecting powered room with Porchet Sonnet porcelain pedestal sink.

The laundry room overlooks the outdoors and offers a wash sink and ample storage cabinetry.

Also offering panoramic bay views is the lower-level legal in-law unit, which includes a full kitchen with gas range, dishwasher and refrigerator, a living room with Regency brass trimmed gas stove, a casual dining area, a carpeted bedroom, bathroom with stall shower, laundry closet, and bonus walk-in storage.

Tucked away on this unique retreat-like property is a charming custom-built tiny house complete with skylights, clerestories, garden window, kitchenette, sitting area, bedroom, loft, and a bathroom plumbed for a steam shower.  A shared private beach is a short hike across the road. NOTE: The Tiny House is included but does not currently have water, electric or septic connections; the structure needs to be legalized with the County of Marin.

Beautiful big sky view terraces, multiple outdoor entertainment areas, meandering walkways, a private Sundance spa nestled under the trees, and a greenhouse compliment this extraordinary property graced by redwood, oak, and bay trees

Enjoy Tiburon amenities, including open space, downtown shopping, restaurants, waterfront pathways, San Francisco and Angel Island ferries, and the award-winning Reed School District only 10 (+/-) minutes away.  The popular Marin County Paradise Park is nearby and features 19 acres of park land with picnic grounds, pickleball, volleyball, paddle boarding, kayaking, and a fishing pier.
