More Insights
Built in 1993 (33 years old).
Condition: This property, built in 1993, presents as move-in ready with significant modern updates. The description highlights 'fully integrated smart-home systems (Lutron, Savant, Sonos, whole-home WiFi, zoned HVAC)' and 'white oak flooring,' indicating substantial recent investment in major systems and finishes. The kitchen features contemporary white flat-panel cabinetry, high-end stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops, which, while a classic choice, are well-maintained. The primary bathroom is luxurious and spacious, though the Hollywood-style vanity lighting and granite countertops suggest an update that might be 10-15 years old rather than brand new. Some secondary bathrooms show slightly more dated tile work. However, the overall condition is excellent, with minimal wear and tear, and the property has clearly undergone extensive renovations to bring it to a high standard, aligning well with the 'Good' criteria for a property built over 20 years ago but extensively renovated within the last 5 to 15 years.

Situated in one of Tiburon's most coveted enclaves, this architectural estate captures stunning Golden Gate, SF skyline, Mt. Tam, and sweeping water views. Set on 1.23 acres of privacy, the Sandy Walker-designed residence lives like a resort with lush mature grounds and a striking 116' x 56' tennis court suspended above the bay. Inside, 5,575 sq ft of light-filled living unfolds from a dramatic double-height entry with curved staircase and 16-ft skylight. The upper level showcases refined formal spaces, an airy family room, and a grand chef's kitchen opening to view terraces, plus a luxe primary suite with spa-like bath and custom wardrobe. The lower level offers flexibility with a large office, three ensuite bedrooms including a private-entry guest retreat and a lounge that flows to manicured outdoor spaces. A 3-car garage and motor court add ease. Luxury features include an elevator, wine room, three fireplaces, white oak flooring, two powder rooms, spa terrace, level lawn, and fully integrated smart-home systems (Lutron, Savant, Sonos, whole-home WiFi, zoned HVAC). Minutes to SF, world-class dining, yacht clubs, Tiburon award-winning schools and scenic trails - this is Tiburon living at its finest.

Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =53579, other record lot size in square feet = 4276.
Potential for Dated Elements: Built in 1993, while featuring smart home systems and high-end finishes, some architectural or design elements, particularly 'refined formal spaces,' might be perceived as less contemporary by buyers seeking brand-new construction or ultra-modern aesthetics.
Significant Ongoing Operating Costs: The extensive luxury amenities, large square footage, 1.23-acre grounds, and private tennis court will necessitate substantial ongoing expenses for maintenance, utilities, and property taxes, which is a consideration for potential buyers.
Niche Market & Extended Sales Cycle Potential: The ultra-luxury price point of nearly $9 million targets a very specific and limited buyer demographic, which could potentially lead to a longer marketing period compared to properties in broader market segments.
