If you’ve ever been to the heart of the Seminary, near the San Anselmo playhouse or visited Wade Thomas Elementary, you will no doubt recognize this iconic and stately home. Built in 1893 by the Samuel P Taylor family (known for the state park in W. Marin that bears their name) this spectaculary designed, one of a kind property is walking distance to charming downtown San Anselmo. With an extensive renovation of the Victorian in 2013, the owners took great care in retaining the bones and character of the house while adding modern, high-end amenities throughout. A luxury chef's kitchen complete with a 14’ Calcutta marble and walnut island flows seamlessly to elegant living and dining areas complete with 2 fireplaces. The unparalleled entertaining space extends outdoors via extra-large bi-folding doors which lead to a private deck perfect for hosting friends and family. From high end Ocre chandeliers, a La Cornue range, Farrow and Ball paint and a Victoria and Albert soaking tub in the master suite, designer and elegant touches can be found at every turn. The upper, air conditioned level boasts the best views in the house and includes an ensuite bath and expansive great room space (ideal for guests, kids, home office). A magical front garden, artfully designed by Humanature with fountains, sitting areas and planter beds is ripe for exploration or relaxation. AND…that is JUST THE HOUSE….which on it's own is over 3000 sq. ft! This grand property also benefits from a nearly 1600 sq. ft. secondary building, currently rented for $5000/month by a preschool. Buyer could take the opportunity to have this lease continue to generate monthly revenue or decide to turn the preschool into a guest house and create a compound of their dreams. Additionally, initial conversations with the Town of San Anselmo have indicated the parcel may be subdivided and the preschool would then reside on it’s own separate parcel. Buyer would be responsible for confirming with the town but this scenario would make for a great feasible investment or development opportunity.
