Acclaimed actor and director Robert Redford and his wife Sibylle Szaggars Redford are listing their Tiburon cottage with an asking price of $4.2 million. With its prime location offering stunning San Francisco Bay views, 2517 Mar East St. has been a private retreat for the couple since their purchase in 2020 for $3.1 million.
The property, described by listing agent Steven Mavromihalis as "positioned down an unpaved dirt road at the end of a cul-de-sac ringed by redwoods," provides a unique combination of ocean and forest surroundings that the Redfords cherished for its privacy and natural beauty, Sibylle Szaggars Redford told SFGATE in an email.
Embodying classic coastal mid-century architecture, the 2,824-square-foot split-level home features extensive windows that integrate the indoor space with the outdoor landscape. With four bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and a large family room, the residence balances spaciousness with the coziness of a beach cottage. The Redfords have implemented several cosmetic changes to the interior and enhanced the outdoor terraces and gardens to accentuate the property's incredible location and views, as Sibylle detailed in her statement to SFGATE.
The Tiburon home is not only a nature lover's paradise, with its proximity to trails, beaches, and waterfront, but also benefits from Tiburon's community amenities. Tiburon's residents enjoy award-winning schools, diverse food options, and a variety of public events outlined on the property listing from Team Mavromihalis. These features contribute to Tiburon's civic pride, which is palpable throughout the community.
Despite their fondness for the property and the Tiburon area, the Redfords are relocating to spend more time in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where Sibylle continues her artistic pursuits. Robert Redford told SFGATE that their involvement with Way of the Rain, a Santa Fe-based nonprofit focused on environmental protection and conservation, has increased their commitment to the region.
Potential buyers interested in preserving the Redfords' touch on the home can negotiate furniture and artwork created by the couple outside of the home's purchase price, as conveyed by Mavromihalis. The listing at 2517 Mar East Ave. presents an opportunity to own a piece of real estate treasured by one of Hollywood's storied couples.
