$4,650,000
This extraordinary home has been completely rebuilt and re-imagined by local architect, Whitney Schrauth with SA + C Design, while maintaining and preserving the historic charm and personality of a coastal cottage. Many of the home’s finishes were recycled and repurposed during construction giving it not only a signature design but also making it an incredibly eco-friendly space. This home was created with a deep understanding of how family dynamics shape the way in which we function in a home.
The welcoming front porch immediately lets you know you have arrived somewhere special where you can take in the incredible views of Mt. Tam and vistas of the beautiful natural surroundings.
