About this property

Lagoon House

This house is a one story 2000 sq ft, 4 bedroom, 2 bath lagoon home on a cul-du-sac that was completely updated and remodeled 6 years ago. It is situated on a very quiet street with neighbors to the side as the width of the lagoon makes a rear fence unnecessary. You will see a lawn, trees and shrubs, a dock, water and water birds. There are covered and wind protected sitting areas in the front and back. The extensively landscaped gardens, classic redwood fencing and lagoon offers privacy, beauty and serenity seldom found in urban homes.

The interior consist of a formal living room and open floor area that includes dining area, kitchen and family room. Granite counter tops, SS sink and appliances and a large island are found in the fully equipped kitchen area. Grohe fixtures are used throughout the house, The 3 bedrooms with queen size beds are carpet with the designated kid’s room having the continuous cherry hard wood flooring. The baths have high end porcelain bowls and the whole house is set off with crown molding. The interior environment is quiet and very stable throughout the year due to radiant floor heating, heavily insulated walls/ceilings and the perfect Bay Area weather.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This was our family's second time staying at the house for a reunion. It has several wonderful gathering spaces inside and outside. The deck on the water and the bathrooms seem to have been renovated since we were there 10 years ago, which was nice to see. The home was perfectly clean with all the furniture, linens, and kitchen stuff we needed. The only thing we could have used more of was soap for the showers as only a small amount of pump hand soap was provided.

Beautiful house in an incredible location on water. Easy walking to the beach. Flat layout with four bedrooms and two bathrooms made everything easy for our group of 6. Hawaiian theme made it feel like a vacation within a vacation.

The house is well appointed and very comfortable and clean. The kitchen is beautiful and spacious, with a nice kitchen table that fits eight. It is usually cool in the San Francisco area, so the home is not air conditioned. Screens on all windows allow you to stay cool. We slept four adults, one teenager and two children comfortably. There are two pillows on the larger beds and one on each twin, so if you sleep with more than one pillow bring it. There are shams on the pillows (no pillowcases) and duvets on the beds (no top sheets) as they wash both between renters. The home is in a beautiful neighborhood, conveniently located within walking distance to a great coffee shop, and within just over a mile to the Safeway grocery store. Note that is on a stunning lagoon, which is right outside the kitchen, family room. There is a small deck, but no gate if you have very small children. The sliding glass door does have a secure lock. The Sea Plane ferry is a good alternative to visit San Francisco. It is about a 12 minute drive and has free parking. Gets you to San Francisco in about 25 minutes or less. Approximately 7 each way.

The place is BEAUTIFUL, tranquil, clean and Annegret is such an incredible host. We were relocating and needed a place to camp while our home was being worked on, and this lovely place provided the perfect soft landing we needed. The lagoon was a pleasant surprise with amazing sunrise and sunset views. You will feel at home in this little piece of heaven.
