Description
Where ocean air and the rhythms of coastal life unfold just moments from Agate Beach. Two distinct homes set on a beautifully landscaped, nearly quarter-acre lot with mature trees and a peaceful natural setting, moments from Agate Beach in the heart of Bolinas; ideal for multigenerational living, guests, or flexible coastal living with two independent homes on one property. Tucked into the quiet charm of Bolinas, one of Marin County's most storied and fiercely protected coastal communities, this rare property offers privacy, natural beauty, and versatility in one of Northern California's most distinctive seaside villages; framed by views of the coastal mountains and glimpses of the nearby Pacific shoreline, the setting provides a peaceful retreat just minutes from the beach. The property reflects the same relaxed, creative spirit and understated charm that have long defined the Bolinas community. Behind a gated and fully fenced entry, the property unfolds as 2 independent homes, each with its own entrance, parking area, and outdoor living spaces; this unique configuration offers possibilities including a primary residence with a guest house, multigenerational living, creative studio space, or part-time coastal living with room for visitors. Both homes have undergone extensive remodeling and thoughtful improvements, blending historic character with modern systems and finishes. The 2-story main home, originally built in the 1950s from reclaimed shipwreck wood gathered along the nearby coastline, reflects Bolinas' maritime heritage, with that historic wood preserved in the home's flooring today. Expansive decks, an outdoor shower, and steel-and-glass doors invite natural light and ocean air indoors. Just beyond the garden gate sits the charming 1926 cottage, thoughtfully updated while preserving its vintage character, featuring bamboo flooring, underfloor heating, energy-efficient systems, walnut cabinetry, abundant natural light, and beautiful, solid-wood interior doors with inset stained glass. Outdoor spaces embrace the indoor-outdoor coastal lifestyle, with subtle glimpses of the ocean and thoughtfully landscaped gardens that provide peaceful places to relax and gather. Life in Bolinas offers something increasingly rare, from the tide pools and cliffs of nearby Agate Beach to the wildlife of Bolinas Lagoon, a community long cherished by artists, surfers, and nature lovers seeking a slower pace of coastal living.
