Inverness, CA 94937
Set above Tomales Bay in Inverness, this architecturally distinctive 2BD/2BA property designed by Alex Riley offers 1,203 sq. ft. of warm, light-filled living space with sweeping bay and hillside views. A dramatic clerestory runs above the main living areas, bringing natural light across wood ceilings and exposed beams, while generous windows connect the interiors to the surrounding landscape. The kitchen, dining, and living areas flow easily beneath the soaring roofline, creating an open and inviting central gathering space. Outside, mature gardens, stone terraces and multiple outdoor areas are integrated into the hillside setting. Separate cabin, workshop and yoga spaces provide added flexibility for working from home, creative pursuits, exercise or additional retreat space. Located on quiet Edgemont Way, the property combines privacy, distinctive architecture and a strong neighborhood community in the heart of Inverness.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Originally built in 1951, the property shows signs of aging and dated finishes. While architecturally significant, the bathroom images reveal a renovation style likely 20-25 years old (dated tile and cabinetry), and the exterior wood siding shows significant weathering. It is functional and move-in ready but requires cosmetic updates and likely system reviews to meet modern standards.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 8420, living area = 1203.
Designed by Alex Riley, the home features a dramatic clerestory, wood ceilings, and exposed beams that create a sophisticated, light-filled aesthetic characteristic of high-end Inverness design.
The inclusion of a separate cabin, workshop, and yoga studio provides exceptional flexibility for remote work, creative pursuits, or guest accommodations beyond the main living area.
