Property Description
Iconic Sausalito Estate with Spectacular City Views. Perched among Sausalito's grand estates, the Crown Jewel of Sunshine Avenue captures extraordinary views of San Francisco, the Bay, Angel Island, and Sausalito from nearly every room. Beautifully restored and located in the coveted Banana Belt - Sausalito's sunniest microclimate - this magnificent three-story, turn-of-the-century shingled British Colonial blends rich historic provenance and timeless elegance with modern luxury and convenience. The former owner, a renowned decorator, lovingly preserved its exquisite period details while creating gracious and sophisticated interiors. The current owners have elevated the home to an exceptional new level with an enlarged, completely renovated kitchen and beautifully reimagined interiors. A welcoming front porch provides an idyllic place to pause and enjoy the sublime views. The main level is devoted to elegant public rooms designed for both comfortable everyday living and memorable entertaining-accented with the San Francisco views. Upstairs are three en suite bedrooms, two with views from Angel Is to the City, along with a nursery or home office. The lower level features a private one-bedroom apartment with its own kitchen, living room, bath, and separate entrance or a 4th connected bedroom suite for the household, while a separate storybook ADU cottage is tucked into the enchanting backyard. The expansive grounds are equally impressive, with a grand front yard, a large and level backyard, and a teardrop driveway offering parking for up to five cars, in addition to a garage for a small car. Rich in character, beauty, and history, this majestic legacy estate presents a rare opportunity to own one of Sausalito's most distinguished residences a short distance to downtown Sausalito and the ferry, and just 10 minutes from San Francisco, an easier commute than from many neighborhoods within the City itself!
