You will be delighted with the design — indoors and out — of this lovely, updated, well-cared-for "Banana Belt" home. Situated just a block from Caledonia Street (where you can dine at a five star restaurant or watch the latest Indie Film at the local theater) and two blocks from downtown and the Ferry Landing. This has it all.
Enter from either San Carlos Avenue (where there is a detached 2 car garage) or Santa Rosa Avenue (with plenty of on-street parking) into an architectural delight with a great floor plan. Then, choose your view! Shall it be dinner on the deck or dining room with expansive views of Richardson Bay and the yachts at the local marinas?? Or, enjoy cuddling up to the cozy corner fireplace and hearth framed by the terraced newly landscaped gardens? So many decisions . . .
Remodeled in 2003 by local Architect Barbara Brown, no detail was overlooked. The chef's kitchen features honed granite counters, six burner Viking range, stainless Frigidaire refrigerator and dishwasher, spacious pantry, expansive skylight with Mecho retractable shade and so much more. Wide plank hardwood floors are easy to maintain and retain the character and charm of this classic Sausalito cottage.
Recent additions include Mecho shades throughout the main level; exterior lighting and irrigation; full security system that includes fire, smoke, burglar and carbon monoxide detection; gas forced air furnace with dual zones for fast and efficient heat; and landscaped terraced garden(s) and cobblestone patio, designed by Petra's Garden Design.
The main floor features an open floor plan with the entrance leading into the living and dining area and adjacent den/media room. A spacious bedroom and guest bathroom are on this floor as well.
Downstairs the master suite, with its own expansive view patio, is adjacent to an additional room, currently used as a walk-in closet and office. This room could easily be converted to another bedroom, nursery, or? You choose! The master bathroom has an expansive shower that can accommodate a party . . . it's BIG and beautiful with those Bay views! A large storage room is also on this level with a separate entrance from San Carlos Avenue.
Every room is warm and welcoming.
A fine home with fine views in a fine location.
