Wake up to shimmering water and Mt. Tam views in this rare waterfront retreat in central San Rafael, where every day feels like a vacation. Perfectly positioned near Montecito Plaza's shops and restaurants, this upper-level residence offers direct Bay access from your 2-slip boat dock ideal for morning paddleboard sessions, sunset cruises, or relaxing by the water's edge. Built in 2005 with thoughtful attention to detail, the home blends modern luxury with relaxed coastal living. An open floor plan captures water views from most rooms, while hardwood floors, crown molding, and solid-core doors add timeless elegance. The chef's kitchen, with its 48-inch Thermador range and marble counters, makes entertaining effortless. Step out to the deck or the palm-lined backyard to watch herons glide over San Rafael Creek. The 4 bedrooms include a serene primary suite with walk-in closet, junior suite, and Jack-and-Jill suite, plus a family room that can serve as a 5th bedroom. Comforts include central AC, tankless water heater, and private 2-car garage. Part of an intimate 2-unit HOA, this is waterfront living at its finest where the Bay is your backyard.
