WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT LIFE AT PT. SAN PEDRO

 

The spacious corner lot has afforded privacy, while also being close to many amenities and the conveniences of Montecito Plaza, Whole Foods Market, San Rafael High School, downtown San Rafael & the transit center.

We are in a unique microclimate by the bay that gives us fabulous weather.

The home faces a natural wooded hillside, with Bayside Park across Pt. San Pedro Road. An expansive view of San Rafael Bay and beyond (the full moon rises are incredible!) is right out our front door. We get to enjoy the peaceful, natural setting between the woods and water.

We have enjoyed many outdoor activities out our doorstep: walking along the water to the beach, biking & hiking through China Camp or taking our kids to one of the convenient parks (Victor Jones, Peacock Park, McNears Beach).

Loch Lomond Marina, approx. 1/2 mile away, is another lovely location with a new children’s playground, path along the marina and a picturesque lagoon.

Family owned Andy’s market is a community gem that offers convenient shopping, deli/cafe/wine bar and outdoor seating. Friendly neighbors gather here while their children freely play on the grass.

We have loved walking or biking with our kids to top rated Glenwood Elementary via a path around the corner, through Glenwood marsh. We often see deer grazing and a variety of birds in the marsh.

The friendly neighborhood has been a wonderful place to raise our children. Our children played safely in the Surfwood Circle cul-de-sac and at the school.

Main drive is not a through street and becomes a bucolic country road on your way to the school or hiking trails.

We are 25+/- minutes to the Golden Gate Bridge, a short drive to the Larkspur ferry and the first turn off for the Glenwood neighborhood.

We created an open living space which offers flow between living, family, dining and kitchen spaces. Working from home has been an effortless transition utilizing the 4th bedroom as an office. This room has a tranquil view of our courtyard.

Easy access to the garden via the primary bedroom and family room provide indoor/ outdoor living. The kids loved the treehouse (designed & built by architect owner), which has views of San Rafael Bay. We enjoy peaceful evenings, with the sounds of crickets and seasonal frogs, while relaxing in the hot tub… a perfect way to end the day!
