At 1885 Mountain View, the Bay sets the rhythm of the day. Morning light falls across Angel Island, the San Francisco skyline comes into focus, and the Golden Gate Bridge anchors a sweeping, 270-degree panorama that stretches from bridge to bridge. As evening approaches, the light softens over the water and sunsets illuminate Mount Tamalpais. It is a setting of remarkable beauty, experienced as naturally from the interiors as from the gardens and terraces.
Beyond a private gated driveway in Tiburon’s coveted Hill Haven neighborhood, the residence occupies one of the enclave’s finest and rarest level lots, with approximately half an acre of beautifully landscaped grounds. The combination of expansive, usable land and commanding Bay views creates an exceptional sense of openness and privacy—a setting without parallel in Hill Haven. Originally owned by the neighborhood’s developer and custom-built in 2008, the home reflects a considered approach to scale, craftsmanship, and comfort. Gracious rooms draw in the light and views, creating an atmosphere that feels equally welcoming on a quiet morning or an evening filled with guests.
Life here extends effortlessly outdoors. A generous lawn surrounds the sparkling pool, while terraces offer distinct places to gather, dine, or simply watch the Bay. Afternoons linger poolside; cocktails give way to dinner beneath the stars as the city lights begin to shimmer across the water. Mature fruit trees, a putting green, and a built-in barbecue lend the grounds the easy intimacy of a much-loved retreat.
Inside, the kitchen and adjoining family room form the heart of daily life. The main-level primary suite offers a peaceful place to unwind, complemented by three additional bedrooms and a dedicated bunk room. A fitness room, recreation and media room, and flexible office area accommodate the quieter routines that make a home deeply livable.
The feeling is one of relaxed seclusion, yet downtown Tiburon is only minutes away. Waterfront cafés, restaurants, boutiques, and the ferry to San Francisco place the pleasures of town and city within easy reach.
With its rare level setting, extraordinary panorama, and gracious connection to the outdoors, 1885 Mountain View offers a singular expression of life on the Bay—its light, its landmarks, and its enduring presence in everyday life.
