The story
- Pool
A single-level home, with 180 degree views, in a gated community built for an active and connected life. In this corner of Marin, that combination does not come along often.Built in 1979 and cared for steadily ever since, with every improvement properly permitted, the home rests on a gentle knoll on a 7,800 square foot lot, the whole property facing south to the water. The views run wide across San Pablo Bay, the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge and the Bay Bridge in the distance, their lights coming on after dark. Roughly 2,450 square feet hold three bedrooms, two of them en-suite, and four baths, all on a single level with no stairs to manage, in a floor plan that moves easily from the indoor rooms to generous outdoor areas made for morning coffee, an afternoon with a book, and a long dinner as the light fades. What makes the Cove itself worth knowing is the life that surrounds the house. This is a community of 46 homes on a peninsula between the Loch Lomond Marina and San Pedro Elementary, gated, quietly maintained, and set in a garden-like landscape. The HOA looks after a pool, a hot tub, a cabana, a clubhouse, two scenic overlooks, and a large bayside park, with a waterfront walking path leading to the harbor and 24-hour surveillance throughout. Well-run HOA with low dues ($562/mo)
