This treasure of a home is quietly hidden behind the friendly mature front garden. It was carefully designed to screen you from the street yet still welcomes all who visit. Once you step inside you immediately realize this is not your Grandmother?s Victorian, thank gawd! The new and modern interior has just undergone a ground up renovation and is truly a work of art. The owners of this home lovingly rebuilt this home for themselves. Both are talented designers and this home is proof of their critical eye as no detail was too small for them to perfect.
The main structure is home to a bright and cheery entry and coat closet, with a playful bench to drop books and backpacks on and a place to remove your shoes. All this is right under the big ol? multi-paned antique sash window from 100 years ago. This scene and design sense repeats itself again and again throughout this home. The next space is a warm and well lit work center that is equally home to computers and sewing machines. The bed and bathrooms off the front hall are perfect for small ones or guests. The bathroom is clean and simple and the bedroom is also refreshingly modern.
The great room concept of one space encompassing the living, eating, and kitchen as one? has really come to life in this home. And it goes one step further with the sliding glass doors that open up the entire back of the house to allow your life to flow effortlessly from the inside to outside, and into the wonderful garden. But before we venture beyond the great room you will be captivated by the abundant afternoon light and a kitchen that is both elegant and perfectly proportioned and outfitted. You will want to cook and entertain here all the time.
The master retreat is just that, a retreat. Once you close the door to your special room you are instantly transported to a luxury spa far away from the daily drudgery of life. The custom concrete bathtub is totally unique in both size and style. You will feel uninhibited in your bathroom to shower, bathe, splash, and laugh yourself happy again. Then fall into bed and dream of your next vacation.
The back garden reinforces how special this home is and all it has to offer. A 2-story studio is nestled at the other end of the yard, between the mature trees and thoughtful landscaping. The studio has the opportunity for so many uses. It is both office and guest house. It is both a private place for you and also a spot to be together. It is defined yet not really definable. I feel like a lot of my own housing desires would come true in this special place. In reality it is actually a cozy and open first floor room, a custom kitchenette, and a masterful bathroom. This room is again made bigger by being seamlessly connected to the outside with windows and a covered patio. Upstairs is a vaulted bedroom space and is a spot that has both a practical use and the vision of an evening spent reading in a big comfy bed while the rain beats down on the vaulted roof. You will feel close and warm is this artist?s retreat. You would probably pay $400 per night for such lodgings in Marin.
And yes all the practical issues have been taken care of in the home as it has been redone from top to bottom with care in the choice of materials and in the workmanship. There is nothing left to do here except enjoy with family and friends.
