Property Description

Tucked along a quiet private road in the Upper Forbes neighborhood of San Rafael, 180 El Cerrito Avenue is defined by its settingjust over an acre of oak-studded landscape with wide-open views stretching toward Mount Tamalpais and the surrounding Marin hills. The approach feels tucked away and private, yet the location remains closely connected to the everyday convenience of downtown. It's a rare balance of seclusion, scale, and accessibility. Inside the home, wraparound windows bring the landscape into focus from nearly every room, while vaulted ceilings create a sense of airiness that carries throughout the main living spaces. The layout is open but intentional, with the living room anchored by a fireplace and oriented toward the views, flowing easily into the dining area and kitchen. A breakfast nook sits just off the kitchen, positioned to capture morning light and connect to the surrounding greenery. Two decks, one wrapping the main level and a more secluded upper deck, extend the living experience outdoors, offering multiple places to gather or step away and take in the setting. The floor plan is both functional and flexible, with three well-proportioned bedrooms, a dedicated office, and a separate family room with its own fireplace, creating space for unwinding or informal living. Thoughtful upgrades throughout the home reflect a focus on quality and longevity, from Marvin windows and refined interior finishes to updated systems and smart home integrations. The grounds have been maintained and improved, with enhanced fire safety measures, irrigation, and custom fencing, including a fenced rear yard that provides usable outdoor space for pets, gardening, or play.
