118 Spencer Ave, Sausalito, CA 94965

Nestled in the hills above downtown Sausalito, this stunning legacy property embodies the best of Marin County living: old-world charm, abundant nature, and sweeping Richardson Bay and Mt. Tam views. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed for comfort, style, functionality, and California living. Originally built in 1918, the house underwent an extensive renovation in 2017-2018 resulting in a sophisticated, contemporary, open-concept sanctuary. Spanning three-levels, there are sweeping views from almost every room. The main level enjoys hardwood floors throughout, oversized sliding doors onto expansive Ipe decks with stainless steel wire railings allowing for unobstructed water views. A chef's kitchen with professional grade appliances and oversized island opens up onto the sophisticated yet casual dining room. A contemporary gas fireplace keeps the main living area cozy whether entertaining or relaxing by the fire at night. The upper level features a beautiful primary suite with 180-degree views and a spa-like bath with dramatic geometric tile in the shower. Two additional bedrooms and a hallway bath complete this floor. One of the bedrooms is quite large and offers a great flex space as a secondary media / family room if desired. The lower level is a private and a wonderful retreat with a full bedroom and bath with an additional space currently used as a home gym. The lower level also opens up onto its own spacious deck that also enjoys views of the surrounding gardens and Bay. Extensive work was done to upgrade many of the house systems including a recently added Timberline asphalt roof. The outdoor space is beyond expansive for Sausalito at 8555sf (per tax records) and is truly a gardener's delight with mature plantings, a giant oak tree, a bocce ball court, a fire pit and multiple deck and sitting areas.There is a wonderful office / yoga room adjacent to the main house along with a 1-car detached garage. Experience the best of California living in this truly rare combination of a beautifully updated home in a fantastic location, that enjoys big water views on a private lot with wonderful outdoor space.
