Muir Beach property frames the California coast
Imagine waking up every day beside crashing ocean waves and panoramic views of the California coast. Envision spending a morning watching the fog roll in off the coast or the seasons change the color of the rolling grasslands.
Such a reality awaits for the future owner of 36 Starbuck Drive in Muir Beach, a recently completed masterpiece with arresting views, balconies off every bedroom and an open interior awash in natural light.
“This property is one in a trillion,” said Alex Narodny of Golden Gate Sotheby’s International Realty, who is colisting the home with Karin Narodny for $11.7 million. “The views are paralyzing. They center on the Pacific Ocean coastline and sweep 360 degrees to Mount Tamalpais.”
The home offers a prime example of patience and endurance. It took a decade to build — six years of permitting and four of construction. That wait, however, was well worth it, Alex Narodny said.
“The views are easily some of the best ever seen of the coastline,” he said.
Inside and out, the listing offers a refined material palette. Finishes selected from around the globe include Oratel fireplaces, Italian porcelain tile patios, European white oak flooring, Miele appliances, Sierra Pacific windows and Ann Sacks tiles in the kitchen and bathrooms.
There’s a video surveillance system for security and a Control 4 audio system throughout. Solar panels contribute energy efficiency as a backup generator offers insurance in case of a blackout.
An elevator connects all five levels as radiant heat spreads throughout the engineered flooring that was finished on site. Lynx stainless steel appliances fashion a superlative outdoor kitchen as a sparkling pool shimmers in the sunlight.
“It’s the perfect blend of spaciousness and intimacy,” Alex Narodny said.
