About
Welcome to 85 Mountain View Avenue in Lagunitas, a rare find at the gateway to West Marin. Upon entering this unique retreat in the woods you’re greeted by a flood of natural light warming the open concept kitchen, living and dining rooms. The use of wood reflects the beauty of the forests viewed through large windows and sky-lights. Many of the built-in pieces were made from salvaged or reclaimed old-growth redwood. The house thoughtfully steps up the hillside with the first staircase leading to the main sleeping floor consisting of a primary suite and two additional bedrooms. Continuing up you reach the large roof deck, more of an outdoor room than a deck, with views of sunny gardens, the separate unit with full bath below, and the forest beyond. Located on the roof itself are a greenhouse/bonus shed and a lovely guest suite with full bath, ample living space, and a reading loft. The main house and outbuildings all open onto the terraced yard with invitations to enjoy a cup of coffee or glass of wine, plant a vegetable garden, create art, or watch bats swoop at dusk.
The treasures of 85 Mountain View reveal themselves as you meander through the property exploring the magical tree house, rain catchment system, gray water irrigation system, and apple and pear trees. There’s a back-up generator and a two car garage. Every nook and cranny of the house and yard were thoughtfully constructed over the past 44 years creating this lovely contemporary, functional homestead.
