About this property
Spellbinding Story Book Chateau with views of Golden Gate & The Bay
Step back into time while you enjoy a very rare opportunity to reside in this idyllic and spellbinding architectual modern version of the 10th century Norman French-style Story Book home seemingly plucked from the pages of a child's bedtime story! If Rapunzel had found herself in this spectacular home, she might not have been in such a hurry to leave.
Soaring over the hidden hills of Tiburon, the views from this captivating escape are second to none.
The materials used to build the home are steeped in California heritage. The brick was salvaged from a hotel that burned down in San Francisco and 80,000 pieces were transported in railcars by barge. The original slate was sourced from the Sierra Nevada mountains. The wood rafters are from old ships and the mortar for the bricks was made using local sand. The home’s original radiant floor heating system was one of the first in the area to be created and is still working.
African Verde Chaine granite in striking greens, black and white covers the counters. There are two ovens, Sub Zero refrigerator and drawers, a Marvel bar refrigerator and two dishwashers (one in the pantry). Storage abounds in the butlers pantry.
Spanning a 1.9 acre lot, this 4600 sq. ft. home and includes parking for up to six vehicles, extensive lawn area on the bayside to enjoy outdoor living and the breathtaking views of the Golden Gate Bridge, the bay and San Francisco.

About the host
Hosted by Pamela Kelley
Living in this incredible house since seven years, while traveling the world, I have brought back treasures and stories from my many travels. I love books and music, which is why the house is filled with books and instruments, an old style record player and records. I have designed the rooms to bring contemporary flair and whimsical design into the classically proportioned, cozy rooms. Of Danish descent, there is some nordic details that further the sense of Hygge.
