16 Aqua Vista Drive, San Rafael, California 94901

Wake up to open water and an unobstructed view of Mt. Tam from this 3,074-square-foot single-story retreat on a sprawling 14,800-square-foot lot, offering 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Vaulted, beamed ceilings and sliding glass walls open the living spaces to the sparkling pool and water beyond. The bright living room leads into a spacious dining area anchored by a cozy fireplace, while the chef’s kitchen shines with light wood cabinetry, granite counters and backsplash, a striking copper range hood, and a premium built-in refrigerator, flowing easily into a family room crowned by wood-plank vaulted ceilings and skylights. The primary suite offers a true retreat, with a walk-in closet featuring a built-in dresser and a spa-like en-suite bath complete with a corner soaking tub and dual-sink marble vanity, while the remaining bedrooms are filled with natural light and offer ample closet space for family or guests. Step outside to resort-caliber living: a palm-lined paver driveway and covered entry set the tone, a wraparound deck surrounds the private pool, and a pergola-shaded patio makes alfresco dining a daily pleasure with direct sightlines to the water and mountains. A private boat dock provides easy deep-water access, and the finished garage delivers generous built-in storage. Rarely does a property capture this much elegance, comfort, and coastal character in one setting.
