Sequestered along the protected edges of Point Reyes National Seashore and the Greater Farallones Marine Sanctuary lies the reclusive, eclectic town of Bolinas, where this offering represents one of the larger undeveloped parcels on the Bolinas Gridded Mesa. Comprising two contiguous lots APNs 191-022-37 (approximately 22,000 sq ft) and 191-022-04 (approximately 4,000 sq ft)the properties are to be sold together, totaling roughly 0.60 acre. The property offers a rare coastal experience: begin the days with sunrises over Bolinas Beach and end with sunsets at Agate Beach, with access in between to surfing, beachcombing, tidepooling, hiking, and cycling along this rugged, ever-changing coastline. Due to the lack of a water connection and the permanent water moratorium established by the Bolinas Community Public Utility District (BCPUD) in 1971, the parcels are being sold as unbuildable. Current possible uses are limited to non-structural, daytime, or agricultural activities (buyers to verify specific uses and permitting requirements with Marin County). These restrictions have helped preserve the treasured natural character of this rural coastal community, protecting the land, its native habitat, and the quiet quality that defines Bolinas. For those with a longer view, the opportunity lies as much in stewardship as in ownership caring for the land, exploring agricultural uses, or holding a rare piece of the Mesa. In a moment of synchronicity, the adjacent developed parcel on Kale Road, featuring a refreshed, iconic A-frame, has just come to market. Opportunities to acquire neighboring properties simultaneously are uncommon in Bolinas. In combination, they offer a compelling relationship between open land and existing infrastructure, suggesting expanded potential while maintaining privacy and a sense of open space (buyers to investigate all possibilities). The property lies within the Coastal Zone. Buyers are advised to verify all permitted uses with Marin County Community Development and BCPUD.

The oldest house in Bolinas is available for the first time in 55 years. Believed to be the oldest residence on the Marin coast, this amazing structure sits on 7.5 acres in the temperate Horseshoe Hill neighborhood. It was built with old growth redwood harvested from the primeval forest in nearby future Dogtown about 175 years ago. Pine Gulch Creek winds through the property as native vegetation lines its perimeter; a central meadow offers a gentle rise capturing a glimpse of the lagoon. Holding a rare use permit for three residences, the property is replete with possibilities. In addition to the original house, there's a rustic Cabin and a two-story one-bedroom Cottage and another two-room Studio. This is an idyllic multi-residence retreat. In exchange for logging rights on Rancho Las Baulines - former land of the indigenous Coast Miwok people - early lumberjacks built the house for rancho-owner Gregoria Briones and his wife Ramona Garcia. With only three major owners in its some 175+/- years, this home and property are ready for the next stewards of an enchanting Bolinas original.

Set along nearly 400 feet of pristine Pacific coastline in the coveted enclave of Bolinas, this private, gated retreat captures the essence of effortless coastal living just moments from San Francisco. The setting is nothing short of breathtaking - sweeping views stretch from Stinson Beach across the horizon and up the rugged Bolinas coastline, with the city skyline shimmering in the distance.

Set along the southern edge of the Olema Valley in Bolinas, within the historic hamlet of Dogtown once known as Woodville, this four-acre generational property is being offered for the first time in over six decades. Dating to the early 1900s, the farmhouse reflects the character of early West Marin ranch architecture with high ceilings, gabled roofs, porches, and a history of families connected to the land. Sunlit and bordered by a seasonal creek, the property is surrounded by the protected parklands of Point Reyes National Seashore and the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, with fantastic nearby access to the horse, hike and biking trail systems such as the Olema and McCurdy trails.

The front porch leads into an inviting kitchen with a wood-burning fireplace, soaring ceilings, hardwood floors, tucked-away cabinetry, and a large window framing Inverness Ridge. A hallway extends from the kitchen and connects two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a family room to an additional wing with another bedroom, full bathroom, laundry area, and a larger room lending to other possibilities.A separate structure on the property provides additional living space with one bedroom, one full bathroom, loft space, a wood-burning stove, and an open kitchen and living area. A large sliding glass door opens to a deck overlooking the surrounding pasture and beautiful landscape.

Throughout the grounds, a mature canopy of oak, cedar, redwood, willow, eucalyptus, and fruit trees shapes the setting. Light moves across the land from morning through evening as deer, migratory birds, and Anna's hummingbirds pass through. Beyond the house, through a stand of willows, lies the Willow Kingdom, a place where generations explored. Rich in history, beauty, and possibility, this land carries the layered history of the Coast Miwok, early ranchers, and the generations who have called Dogtown home.
