The Bay Area offers just that with a property at 325 Taylor Road in Tiburon, which has just been listed for a cool $8.3 million. The home, displaying the distinct "Forgotten Modern" style of the late architect John Marsh Davis, is making its first appearance for sale in nearly three decades. This exclusivity comes with a backdrop of the Ring Mountain Preserve, boasting panoramic views and a serene hilltop setting.
Spanning over 5 acres, this private retreat, minutes away from the bustle of San Francisco, features a 4,286-square-foot living space inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright. With only twenty minutes from the city, the redwood-clad home sports three bedrooms and is perfect for those looking to escape urban sprawl. Three bathrooms only depict a portion of the craftsmanship within its walls, according to the Robb Report. High ceilings and an open-concept great room, complemented by 18-foot ceilings, are awash with natural light streaming in from 13 skylights and ample clerestory windows.
The primary bedroom suite of this home is nothing short of a luxury, with three private outdoor lounging areas and a room-sized walk-in closet, as per listing details obtained by Compass. But it's not just about the indoor comfort—the property has sustainable features like a 60-panel solar array and a custom Rumford fireplace, setting the standard for eco-friendly elegance.
Fusing top-tier amenities with natural beauty, the residence also prides itself with a recently updated kitchen that boasts stainless appliances and an expansive eat-in island. Liz McCarthy, co-listing agent with Shenna Moe - both of Compass - conveyed to the Robb Report her impression: "I have never seen a more private, compelling and breathtaking home." The property promises exclusivity with its lengthy double-gated driveway, leading to a spacious motorcourt and a two-car garage, including up to six additional vehicles, ensures ample parking space.
For those interested in making an offer on 325 Taylor, the current floor plan allows for potential expansion, though any changes would be subject to Marin County's design review.
