Property Description
Single-story homes on large, level lots in the most desirable areas of Ross are rare. This 4BR/3.5BA residence is one of them, and it's available for the first time in more than 50 years. Set back on a cul-de-sac tucked behind mature greenery irrigated by its own private well, the sun-filled grounds unfold across nearly half an acre: specimen oaks that predate everything in town, hydrangeas, Japanese maples, roses, jasmine, azaleas, a fish pond, and a swimming pool with built-in spa. The house itself carries quiet, timeless character, with hardwood floors, built-in cabinetry, and high, vaulted ceilings. Nearly every room opens to the gardens, positioning the outdoors as an inviting extension of the indoor living space, along with several patios on which to relax in sun or shade. The ideal layout separates flexible public rooms from generous sized bedrooms combined with abundant light from windows surrounding every room. Bookshelves abound. Large closets. A convenient pantry with a "secret" wine storage area. Beyond the serene property line, the pace changes up a bit. You may find that rush hour in Ross is often a pack of cyclists with the occasional dog setting the tempo. Ross Common, right around the corner, is the town's living room: softball on the diamond, soccer on the greens, lemonade stands, a weekly farmers market, and neighbors who stop to talk because nobody's in a hurry. Once a year, the Town Dinner takes over the Common,long tables, an enviable array of food, and entertainment made up of garage bands and choirs with talented musicians made up entirely of town residents. A biannual Town celebration benefits the legendary K-8 Ross School with cocktails and intimate dinners in private homes where everyone gets to know one another, and new residents are introduced. Shops, restaurants, and the award-winning K-8 Ross School are just down the street. The Branson School, one of the Bay Area's most sought-after private high schools, is also in town, and Phoenix Lake and Mount Tam put miles of hiking and biking trails practically at the front door. Downtown San Anselmo is only a few blocks away. This is more than a house it offers a lifestyle with a small-town rhythm most people assume disappeared decades ago. In Ross, it's just a regular day.
