About This Home

As of January 2026

Waterfront view - coastal living. Start your day with a stroll along the Bay Trail, then take a 30-minute ferry ride to San Francisco—no Bay Bridge stress, just coffee and views. Sunday farmers market in nearby park. This 2BR/2.5BA PUD townhome in Marina Bay blends coastal charm with modern comfort. A sunny patio with a white-picket-fence and two dedicated parking spaces offer privacy and convenience rarely found in a gated community. Inside, light-filled spaces feature LVP floors, 9-ft ceilings, and a cozy fireplace. The kitchen has an open counter for bar stool seating and pass through to dining room; great for relaxed gatherings. Two ensuite bedrooms upstairs—both with vaulted ceilings and water views—provide peaceful retreats. Low HOA dues, scenic paths, and marina access are right outside your door. Life here feels like a getaway—every single day.
