About This Home

As of July 2025

7 Walnut: Where Past & Future Meet. Rare opportunity to restore or re-envision a vintage gem in a coveted Larkspur location. This rustic & weathered 1902 summerhouse is living legacy, featured in the book Larkspur: Past & Present. It's one of the earliest historic homes on the hill. Set on a still-idyllic naturalized lot, just one block above the village on The Loop, this home awaits your creative vision. Current footprint offers 2 bedrooms & 2 baths downstairs, plus a loft bedroom with Mt. Tam views, with a classic 1920's steel & porcelain stove, claw foot tubs & a traditional wraparound porch. Home sits on more than half acre of level to gentle slope that offers a sense of privacy, a generous expansion envelope, & ample off street parking. No Driveway at the front, access driveway next to 24 Palm St. Walnut loops into Palm Please PARK ON THE STREET in back (Palm St.) for open houses. If you've dreamed of a West Marin setting close to town, don't miss this chance to create your own piece of paradise.
