This $11.6 Million Marin County Home Sits Right on San Francisco Bay
- A modernist gem on Belvedere Island, designed by architect A. Quincy Jones and built by developer Joseph Eichler in the 1960s, is now on the market for just under $11.6 million.
This modernist gem tucked away on Marin County's Belvedere Island has hit the trifecta. Not only was the place conjured by a noted architect and crafted by a visionary post-war builder, but it also has a primo waterfront setting offering up picturesque views of Mount Tamalpais, Sausalito, the San Francisco Bay, and Golden Gate Bridge.
Originally designed and built in the early 1960s by prolific developer Joseph Eichler and celebrated architect A. Quincy Jones , the home last sold to Bay Area interior designer Pam Robertson and her husband Jim in 2007 for $1.5 million. It subsequently underwent a thorough coastal-chic makeover that's been featured in the pages of Coastal Living magazine. Now it's just popped up on the market again for a speck under $11.6 million, with Shana Rohde-Lynch of Compass holding the listing .

On just under a quarter of an acre of fenced and gated land bordering the bay, the breezy white wood-sided structure offers four bedrooms and three baths in roughly 2,200 square feet. A charming courtyard boasting a vaulted open-beam pergola and water feature introduces the "calming and tasteful" living space, which is spotlighted by a voluminous fireside living room sporting a high ceiling topped with whitewashed beams and a woven pendant light. Sliding glass doors spill out to an expansive entertainment deck.
An adjacent dining room and media lounge abut a shiplap-clad kitchen outfitted with all-white cabinetry, marble countertops, an eat-in island, and top-tier KitchenAid, Miele, Sub-Zero, U-Line, and Wolf appliances. Beyond the kitchen are two guest bedrooms, a full bath, and an office that can be closed off with barn-style doors, while a secluded primary suite on the opposite side of the house has two walk-in closets with bespoke wardrobes, as well as a spa-inspired bath flaunting dual vanities, a large glass-encased shower, and floors dressed in striped porcelain tile.
