Rückzugsort An Der Küste Mit Energieeffizientem Luxusleben

Where ocean air and the rhythms of coastal life unfold just moments from Agate Beach, yet just forty-five minutes from San Francisco. What makes this property truly special? A rare blend of clean living and energy efficiency rarely found in Bolinas homes, thoughtfully designed with a focus on healthier interiors and improved air quality, paired with a beautifully landscaped, nearly one-quarter-acre lot featuring a primary residence and a fully separate cottage. Both homes have been extensively upgraded with low-toxicity finishes and high-performance building systems, including premium dual-pane windows and doors; eco-friendly, non-toxic, soy-based insulation throughout the walls, floors, and ceilings, with denim-jean insulation in the cottage walls; and tankless water heaters. Together, these features create a quiet, comfortable, clean, and energy-efficient living environment. Behind a gated and fully fenced entry, the two-story main home, originally built in the 1950s from reclaimed shipwreck wood gathered along the nearby coastline, reflects Bolinas maritime heritage, with that historic wood preserved in the home’s flooring today; extensive improvements that set this property apart from comparable homes and contribute to its overall value include updated electrical and plumbing systems, a newer roof, expansive decks for indoor outdoor living, and radiant heat that combined with quality insulation creates consistent year-round comfort. Just beyond the garden gate sits the charming nineteen twenty-six cottage, thoughtfully updated while preserving its vintage character. Inside bamboo flooring that can be sanded and refinished over time pairs with radiant-heat floors walnut cabinetry in the kitchen and premium solid-wood interior doors with inlaid stained glass.
