Come home to the gorgeous green grounds of this private Marin estate

Imagine coming home to this sprawling and serene private estate set on 2.2 acres of meticulous­ly landscaped property in Marin County. Located in Ross, just north of San Francisco’s thriving tech industry, this luxurious, one-of-a-kind home is set on park-like grounds and features stunning vistas from every room—promising a peaceful escape from your everyday grind. The property comprises a four-bedroom and three-and-a-half-bathroom main house plus a separate two-bedroom, two-bathroom guest house for a total of 7,874 square feet of gorgeous living space. Both structures feature a standing seam metal roof for an elegant, contempora­ry touch. The main house boasts a vine-covered pergola, which shades the expansive terrace and provides ample space for al fresco dining. A blue stone path leads down through the rolling green lawn to the 55-foot heated swimming pool with a spa—where, on the patio of the guest house, surrounded by greenery, you can entertain in style.

The main house features an open floor plan, which provides comfortabl­e and casual flow with an ideal layout for entertaini­ng as well as everyday living. Luxe fixtures and high-end finishes show a thoughtful attention to detail throughout. A honed black marble entry sets a sophistica­ted tone and gives way to wide-plank, rare-oak floors. The gourmet chef ’s kitchen features high-end appliances and a kitchen island with bar seating and is open to a casual eating space and a cozy sitting area complete with French doors which open to the terrace. Wall-to-wall windows and the vaulted tongue-and-groove ceiling keep the open living/dining space bright and airy. The living room also overlooks the home’s expansive outdoor space and French doors lead outside. However, the highlight of the space is cozy, circular banquette seating wrapped around a 1,000-plus-year-old redwood. A stunning addition to the room, the conversati­on piece further strengthen­s the home’s indoor/ outdoor connection. All four bedrooms feature high ceilings and a bright, sunny vibe. The standout master bedroom suite is spacious and boasts a deluxe master bath with dual vanities, a deep soaking tub, and a rich marble finish.

Other highlights include blue stone pathways which meander through private orchards of Burgundy Plums, Fuji Apples, and Brown Turkey Figs, a fitness center, and a veranda complete with heat lamps and built-in gas BBQ for effortless entertaini­ng. The town of Ross is home to some of the area’s most exquisite estates, toprated schools, and protected open space. Don’t miss this unique opportunit­y to own your very own worldclass property.
