About This Home

As of March 2026

Tucked off a private lane, this estate feels like a hidden retreatwhere every structure, garden, and pathway has been intentionally designed to create harmony. Originally built in 1906 and fully reimagined by PatriARCH Architecture and Imprints Landscape Architecture in 2019, the property lives as a sophisticated compound: a masterfully rebuilt main residence, a beautifully retrofitted historic barn, a versatile office/cabana, and a fully finished garage with custom storage.Mornings begin in the chef's kitchen, where a large Carrera marble waterfall island anchors the space beneath streams of natural light, accompanied by a Wolf six-burner range, dual wine fridges, and custom cabinetry. Folding glass doors dissolve the boundary between indoors and outdoors, opening to bluestone patios, manicured lawns, and tiered gardens. Bedrooms are private retreats filled with natural light and sweeping views of Marin. The primary suite offers vaulted ceilings, a cozy fireplace, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-like marble bathroom with soaking tub and dual showers. Additional bedrooms, including a guest suite with en-suite bath, provide comfort and versatility throughout. The grounds are nothing short of extraordinary, meticulously transformed in 2019 as a connected master plan where indoor and outdoor spaces flow seamlessly. Expansive lawns are dotted with specimen olive, plum, and maple trees, complemented by hydrangea, roses, lilacs, star jasmine, and seasonal calla lilies. Layered groundcover and evergreen plantings add texture and structure year-round, while a dedicated vegetable and flower garden enhances both beauty and function. Multi-level bluestone patios span the northern side of the home; the barn opens to a wide Ipe staircase leading to a large circular patio and tiered steps to the lawn. Come evening, carefully placed landscape lighting makes every corner feel curated. The estate's additional structures expand every possibility. The historic barn features a full bathroom, upper-level lounge, built-in storage, and French doors opening to an outdoor kitchen. The cabana office provides a quiet workspace and the finished garage boasts custom cabinetry throughout. Every space connects seamlessly, creating a compound that feels both grand and intimate. Evenings are spent fireside in the family room, the primary suite, or beneath the open skya reminder that this is not just a home, but a complete estate experience, perfectly curated for lifestyle in Marin.
