Built in 1906, this timeless Craftsman residence captures the elegance, warmth, and craftsmanship of a true turn-of-the-century San Rafael classic. Perched in the hills above downtown on nearly a quarter acre, the property is perfectly positioned to take in sweeping bay views, glimpses of the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge, and abundant natural sunlight throughout its many outdoor spaces. Rich in original character, the home showcases elegant wood moldings, beautifully maintained hardwood floors, custom built-ins, and the enduring quality of old-growth redwood construction. Thoughtful upgrades, including an improved foundation and owned solar, blend modern functionality with historic charm. The spacious and inviting floor plan includes a formal dining room, gracious living room, kitchen with expansive pantry and historic built-in cabinetry. Three generously sized bedrooms with a bonus flex space family room upstairs as well. The primary suite offers a true retreat, featuring soaring vaulted ceilings, multiple skylights, dual walk-in closet spaces, and an en-suite bath with additional closet storage. Distinctive details such as a custom fireplace surround, expanded foyer and entryway, and the remarkable scale of every room create an atmosphere that feels both grand and welcoming. A massive lower-level unfinished basement bonus space offers exceptional flexibility for creative, recreational, or future expansion possibilities or possible ADU. Outside, multiple entertaining areas invite gatherings, gardening, and relaxation among mature fruit trees and sun-drenched terraces. A large flat western portion of the property currently serves as a parking pad but offers a variety of potential future uses. Mt. Tam also beckons through the Oak tree on the western side of the property. Throughout the home and grounds, a rare sense of spaciousness and comfort is ever-present, making this one-of-a-kind property a truly special place to call home.
