Carrying a touch of Marin's rock-and-roll history, this 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath San Anselmo home was built by the driver for The Grateful Dead. Perched on a private hillside with sweeping views of Mount Tamalpais, the 4,365 square foot residence blends scale, warmth, and thoughtful updates throughout. Vaulted wood-paneled ceilings and expansive living and family rooms create an inviting sense of space, while a newly tiled kitchen with a large island, open shelving, and breakfast nook frames the view perfectly.Multiple decks extend the living outdoors, giving the home its treehouse-like charm, while a cold plunge and hot tub add a touch of retreat. The property also includes a legal ADU with a full kitchen, offering flexibility for extended family, guests, or rental income. Additional updates include new paint, new carpets, an upstairs laundry room, and a brand-new roof in 2025. The primary suite features walk-in closets, a spacious en-suite bath, and access to hillside views. A large two-car garage with additional driveway parking completes the home.With its combination of scale, privacy, and proximity to downtown San Anselmo, this hillside property offers a lifestyle that balances everyday comfort with the best of Marin living.
