$1,000,000 Reduction! An incredible opportunity to own a legacy estate in one of Marin's most desirable enclaves. Set in the sought-after Seminary Neighborhood of San Anselmo, this serene and sprawling, two-parcel estate with stunning views is ready for a new visionary. 165 Crescent Road is nestled in the tranquil wooded hillside overlooking Mount Tam and the Theological Seminary, close enough to downtown San Anselmo for easy access to all daily conveniences while retaining the peacefulness and privacy of its stunning natural setting. The abundant period details of the main house imbue a rich sense of history, including full surround wood paneling, impeccably crafted built-ins, and dramatic ceiling beams & coffers. Flowing from the primary residence is a gorgeous central courtyard, providing a secluded sanctuary for the rear bi-level cottage and adjacent pool. This historic home was constructed in 1905 by the founder of the First Bank of San Anselmo, Joseph Charles Raas, and was selected for the 1978 Marin Designers Showcase. An absolute stand-out opportunity. The scope and expanse of these treasured grounds must be seen and felt in person!
