There are few settings in Marin that offer the ease, beauty, and quiet prestige of the Ross flats. Defined by a rare combination of privacy, luxury, and timeless appeal, this coveted enclave represents some of the most sought-after living in all of Marin. At 96 Laurel Grove Avenue, that exceptional setting is paired with a home of remarkable quality and presence—beautifully renovated and completed in 2022 to live effortlessly for today, while honoring the character and elegance of its surroundings.

The comprehensive renovation was guided by a clear and intentional vision: to create a home that balances architectural scale with warmth and livability, where every space feels both elevated and entirely comfortable. The result is a residence that lives seamlessly at every level, with an emphasis on design integrity, natural light, and a strong indoor-outdoor connection.

Set on a private and level ±0.96-acre lot, the gated residence unfolds across approximately 5,472 square feet (per Context Visuals),offering six bedrooms and five-and-a-half baths. Designed in collaboration with Jared Polsky, the home is defined by clean architectural lines, a cohesive material palette, and a thoughtful flow that supports both everyday living and refined entertaining. 

From the moment of arrival, the home conveys a quiet sense of sophistication. Interiors are grounded by wide-plank oak floors, Venetian-plastered fireplaces, and bespoke lighting, creating a warm, understated elegance throughout. Each space has been carefully considered, resulting in a home that feels both intentional and inviting.

The spectacular great room is where kitchen, dining, and living spaces converge in a way that feels both expansive and intimate. A wall of French doors and a glass sliding door open effortlessly to the grounds, creating a natural rhythm between indoor and outdoor living that defines the property. Whether hosting on a grand scale or enjoying a quiet evening at home, the flow is both seamless and refined.

The kitchen is beautifully executed and designed as much for gathering as for function, featuring custom rift-oak cabinetry, striking white Macaubas quartzite, handcrafted Sonoma tile, and a suite of professional-grade appliances, including Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Miele. Clean lines and timeless finishes anchor the space, making it both visually compelling and highly livable.

Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a serene retreat, positioned to capture beautiful natural light and views of the ridgeline. A custom walk-in closet and a spa-like bath with a wet room create a calming, refined environment. Three additional bedrooms, one of which is en suite, are thoughtfully placed, with many overlooking the grounds, and a full bath and laundry room, offering both privacy and flexibility for a variety of lifestyles.

The lower level continues the home’s versatility and scale, offering two bedrooms with direct outdoor access, a wine cellar, and a flexible living space ideal for guests, extended family, a home office, gym, or au pair quarters. This level enhances the home’s ability to adapt to both immediate and long-term needs.

The grounds are truly exceptional in both scale and design. Conceptualized by Brad Eigsti of Imprints, the outdoor spaces have been thoughtfully curated to create a series of distinct yet connected experiences. Expansive level lawns, mature landscaping, fruit trees, and carefully designed garden moments provide both beauty and functionality. Italian bluestone terraces anchor multiple outdoor living areas, offering a natural extension of the home’s interiors.

At the center of the outdoor experience is a 38-foot pool and spa, complemented by an outdoor kitchen and fire pit, creating a setting equally suited for intimate evenings or larger gatherings. The composition of the grounds reflects the same level of intention found throughout the home: cohesive, timeless, and beautifully executed.

Just moments from Ross School, the Ross Common, Marin Art & Garden Center, and some of Marin’s most beloved trail systems, the location offers a rare blend of privacy and connection—where daily life feels both grounded and elevated. 96 Laurel Grove Avenue is that uncommon combination: a home of substance and scale, set in one of Ross’s most cherished and walkable locations.
