27 Quarry Rd, San Rafael, CA 94901

This extraordinary 1886 Queen Anne mansion, tucked away at the end of a quiet tree-lined street in San Rafael, is one of the city's hidden architectural treasures and a winner of the 2020 San Rafael Heritage Preservation Award. Set on an expansive and private, approximately 2/3-acre lot, the property offers a rare blend of history, scale, charm, and opportunity. Beautifully preserved with so many original features intact, the home remains rich in character, craftsmanship, and timeless architectural detail, while offering a rare opportunity for its next steward to thoughtfully reimagine and modernize the estate for 21st-century living. Offering 5 bedrooms, multiple bonus rooms, and 4.25 bathrooms (bath in attic not hooked up), the approximately 4,975 square foot residence is exceptionally spacious and filled with warmth and personality. Soaring 11-foot ceilings, five fireplaces, original doors and hardware, and pocket doors that still glide effortlessly open and closed all speak to the remarkable quality and preservation of another era. The estate-like grounds feature a circular driveway, expansive grassy yard, rock-walled terraced gardens, mature exotic trees, and nearly level usable land offering endless possibilities for entertaining, recreation, gardens, or future enhancements and/or development. Lovingly preserved for generations, this is an exceptional opportunity to become only the fourth family to own a true piece of San Rafael history and to restore and elevate this remarkable Queen Anne estate into one of Marin County's truly spectacular historic properties.
