A rare opportunity to reimagine a legacy estate. Set on a commanding 1.3 acre parcel in San Rafael's exclusive Country Club neighborhood, this 5BD/3BA, 4,510 sq. ft. estate, built in 1980, frames an ever-changing canvas of water, bridges, rolling hills, and city lights stretching from the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge and East Bay skyline to the iconic Bay Bridge and its sparkling Bay Lights display. Designed with California contemporary architecture, the tri-level floor plan features vaulted ceilings, multiple skylights, a dramatic terracotta-tiled foyer, hardwood floors throughout the main living areas, spacious living and family rooms, a formal dining room, multiple view decks with new fire-rated TimberTech Vintage Collection decking, and bedrooms & full bath on each level. The private primary suite offers a fireplace, private view deck, walk-in closet, soaking tub, and separate shower. The lower level includes two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, deck access, and a large unfinished storage room with potential for future customization. Outdoor features include a gated entry, several usable level areas for recreation or expanded outdoor living, a brick patio overlooking the bay, and parking for six or more vehicles. Additional improvements include a roof approximately 10-12 years old and recent conversion from septic to public sewer. Surrounded by multi-million-dollar estates and offering convenient access via Summit Road, just minutes from downtown San Rafael. With exceptional views, privacy, and strong bones, this property presents an outstanding opportunity to modernize and personalize an estate-quality home in one of Marin's most desirable neighborhoods.
