40 Blue Ridge Road

There's a reason Kent Woodlands has remained one of Marin's most sought-after neighborhoods for generations. Tucked into the foothills of Mt. Tam, it offers a sense of being away from it all, yet you're only minutes from everything that makes Marin so easy to love. Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac with just one other neighbor, 40 Blue Ridge Rd captures that feeling beautifully. This 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home has been loved by the same family for 50 years. Now, for the first time in half a century, it is ready for its next chapter. From the moment you enter the living room, the setting takes center stage, with a breathtaking view sweeping across the treetops of Kent Woodlands to Mt.Tam. The home was designed with entertaining in mind, with distinctive architectural details and spaces made for gathering. The dining room is complemented by a separate room with a handsome wood bar, while an hexagonal sunroom adjoining the kitchen adds character and charm. A generous rumpus room provides space to play, relax or entertain. A fully cork-lined tasting room and temperature-controlled wine cellar create a memorable setting for intimate evenings. A versatile room with a fireplace offers flexible space for a home office or retreat. Outside, the pool is surrounded by an expansive deck perched above the treetops, creating an exceptional sense of privacy and openness. It's easy to imagine long summer afternoons by the pool, alfresco dinners and quiet mornings surrounded by the sounds of nature. Kent Woodlands is a neighborhood where the outdoors becomes part of everyday life. Miles of hiking, biking, and running trails connect into Marin open space and watershed lands, with Mt. Tam in the backyard. Neighborhood gatherings and seasonal traditions create a sense of connection that can be hard to find in such a private and peaceful setting. There is an ease to life here. You can head out for a morning hike, spend the afternoon around your own pool, and still be close to restaurants, shopping, schools, and the communities of central Marin. San Francisco is within easy reach when you want it, while home feels distinctly removed from the pace of the city. This is not a house that is trying to be someone else's finished vision. It's an opportunity. A special setting, remarkable privacy, and a home that has been part of one family's story for five decades. Now it's waiting for its next owner to bring their own vision to life and begin the next 50 years.
