A rare offering in one of Tiburon’s most coveted coastal enclaves, this extraordinary contemporary residence represents the perfect balance of modern architectural design, refined craftsmanship, and effortless California living. Thoughtfully constructed in 2013-2014 and privately positioned on over half an acre, the approximately 4,165-square-foot home was designed to maximize natural light, sweeping panoramic views, and seamless indoor-outdoor living at every turn. Expansive walls of glass, soaring ceilings, and clean contemporary lines create a dramatic yet welcoming atmosphere throughout the 5-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom residence, which is equipped with an elevator serving two levels.
Architecturally striking from the moment of arrival, the residence seamlessly blends wood, stucco, and glass to create a sophisticated modern aesthetic that feels both timeless and inviting. Rich hardwood flooring, designer lighting, A/C, and carefully curated finishes elevate each space, while the home’s open-concept floor plan was thoughtfully designed to accommodate both grand-scale entertaining and comfortable everyday living. Sweeping views of the bay, marina, East Bay hills, bridges, and sparkling evening lights are showcased throughout the home, with floor-to-ceiling glass doors and expansive terraces creating a constant connection to the surrounding landscape.
At the center of the home, a dramatic great room anchors the main living level with soaring ceilings, expansive entertaining spaces, and seamless access to multiple outdoor terraces designed for year-round indoor-outdoor living. The magazine-worthy chef’s kitchen opens directly to the dining and family spaces, creating an ideal setting for intimate gatherings, large-scale entertaining, or relaxed day-to-day living. Surrounded by beautifully landscaped grounds, mature trees, drought-resistant gardens, and multiple outdoor seating and level areas, the property also offers exceptional privacy and the potential for additional resort-style amenities, including a pool, bocce court, or expanded lawn space.
Ideally located just moments from Paradise Cay Marina, Ring Mountain hiking trails, and the famed "Paradise Loop" cycling route, the home enjoys one of Southern Marin’s most desirable and commuter-friendly locations. Residents benefit from close proximity to award-winning Reed schools and Reed district bus stop, Marin Montessori, MCDS, downtown Tiburon, local shopping and dining, and convenient access to Highway 101, the Tiburon or Larkspur Ferry, San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and San Francisco International Airport. Combining privacy, architectural sophistication, and an exceptional lifestyle setting, this remarkable residence offers a rare opportunity to experience contemporary luxury in one of Marin County’s most sought-after communities.

Tiburon: Inspired by the Views. Defined by the Lifestyle
∎
Tiburon’s waterfront location makes it a prime destination for Marin County homebuyers. For a town of less than 10,000 residents, Tiburon offers a variety of activities that belies its small size. The annual Tiburon International Film Festival brings films from around the world. Residents enjoy shopping in the elegant boutiques along Ark Row, a leafy, block-long enclave of tiny shops that were once floating arks, and dining at the excellent restaurants along Main Street. For the nautically inclined, Tiburon's Corinthian Yacht Club hosts races on the bay. Ferries to San Francisco and Angel Island State Park leave from the dock at Tiburon. Tiburon's parks are strung out like pearls on a necklace along the water’s edge. Blackie's Pasture, named after an old swaybacked horse that once lived here, is a popular spot for hikers, joggers, bikers, moms with strollers, and dog walkers. On weekends, the parks fill up with soccer players of all ages.
Nestled along the waterfront on the coveted eastern side of Tiburon, Paradise Cay is one of Southern Marin’s most exclusive and picturesque enclaves. Known for its private marina lifestyle, peaceful atmosphere, and breathtaking bay views, the neighborhood offers a unique blend of luxury living and relaxed coastal charm. Residents enjoy immediate access to Paradise Cay Marina, making it especially desirable for boating and sailing enthusiasts, while the scenic Paradise Loop attracts cyclists and outdoor lovers from across the Bay Area. With its quiet streets, stunning waterfront setting, and close proximity to downtown Tiburon, Paradise Cay offers a rare lifestyle that feels both secluded and effortlessly connected.
