Architectural Character in the Heart of San Anselmo

13 San Rafael Avenue #C has a personality all its own, with distinctive architecture, abundant natural light, and a tucked-away setting just off the heart of downtown San Anselmo. One of only three residences, the two-bedroom home is reached along a private paver path, where curved walls, statement windows, vaulted ceilings, and multiple skylights give the interiors a character that feels especially at home in San Anselmo.

Downstairs, the living, dining, and kitchen spaces come together in an open layout. A gas fireplace anchors the rounded living room, while a large unique circular window and overhead skylights bring in natural light and highlight the home's architectural details. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a new Samsung refrigerator, and a large arched window that brightens the space. Just beyond the dining area, a door opens to a private patio surrounded by mature trees—an intimate outdoor spot for reading, dining, or enjoying a quiet afternoon outside.

Upstairs, both bedrooms have their own sense of character. The primary bedroom is set within the home's distinctive turret, with windows wrapping the room, a built-in desk and shelving, and two closets with built-in storage. The second bedroom features vaulted ceilings and a skylight, creating a bright, airy feel. The modern full bath continues the emphasis on natural light with its own vaulted ceiling and skylight, along with marble countertops and dual sinks.

The location adds another layer to the appeal. Downtown San Anselmo's restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and everyday conveniences are just a short walk away, making it easy to leave the car in the home's covered parking space and head into town on foot. At home, you still have the privacy of a tucked-back setting, outdoor space of your own, and architecture that feels far from ordinary.

Close to Everything That Makes San Anselmo Special

With only three residences in the building and an entrance that feels removed from the street, 13 San Rafael Avenue #C offers a distinctive take on in-town living—light-filled, full of character, and close to the places that make downtown San Anselmo such an enjoyable part of Marin. Start the morning with coffee at LONGWAY, pick up lunch from Comforts, or walk into town for dinner and rooftop drinks at Tụ Tập. Summer brings Live on the Avenue, when downtown streets close on Friday and Saturday evenings for free music and programming, along with the festivals, events, and gatherings that make the Avenue feel like an extension of the neighborhood. With all of that close by, San Rafael Avenue makes it easy to enjoy San Anselmo on foot while still coming home to a private, tucked-away setting.
