There is a moment here, most evenings, when the light drops behind Mt. Tamalpais and the whole lagoon turns to copper. You'll watch it from the deck, drink in hand, and wonder why anyone leaves.

This is waterfront living rebuilt from the ground up a two-story home taken to the studs and reimagined in 2024 for the way Marin actually lives: doors open, light pouring in, water at the edge of the lawn. Turnkey in the truest sense. At the center is a kitchen built for cooking, appointed without compromise Viking dual-fuel range, Sub-Zero refrigeration, custom cabinetry, and stone selected to catch the afternoon light. The oversized custom bar, complete with wine refrigeration and ice maker, was built for the kind of evening that starts at six and ends well after dark.

Soaring ceilings and walls of sliding glass dissolve the line between the great room and the water beyond. Outside, the deck is its own destination: a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with gas grill, beverage refrigerator, sink and disposal, a wood-fired pizza oven, and a fire pit positioned for exactly one purpose front-row seats to the best sunsets in Corte Madera. The location is quietly extraordinary. Corte Madera Town Center sits directly across the street groceries, coffee, fitness, dining, and some of the finest shopping in the North Bay, all on foot. Public paths at your doorstep connect to Corte Madera, Larkspur, and world-class hiking and biking. Renowned schools, Neil Cummins, Hall Middle, and Redwood High are an easy walk and the city is closer than you'd think: five minutes to Marin Country Mart and Ferry, ten minutes to both the Golden Gate and Richmond-San Rafael Bridges.

Everything feels better on the water.
