Six Beautiful Homes Under Six Million in Marin

Marin County is renowned for many things; the birthplace of mountain biking, the oldest cross country running event in America, ubiquitous natural beauty, a liberal laid-back atmosphere, etc. Regrettably the combination of all these lovely characteristics has resulted in yet another omnipresent feature. The steep prices of real estate in this county are no secret. Some of the most expensive single-family homes in the whole country are located here. Eighteen of the approximately forty zip codes in Marin have been listed in Forbes’s most expensive places to live in the US. Taking a drive through the sleepy community of Belvedere or down the shady lanes of Kentfield and Ross, it comes to no surprise that Marin has gained such notoriety for its pricey realty. Luxurious homes, spectacular views, quiet streets, and desirable school systems contribute to the high-end ambiance of these neighborhoods. Even the most humble Marin residents can’t deny the affluence that floods this area. Those who appreciate deluxe architectural styling and unbeatable water plus city vistas can’t get enough of Marin. It is for these reasons that industry moguls scurry to buy up real estate in the SF Bay area. So, naturally, the asking prices for these mansions match the numbers in the bank. Below are some of the most expensive houses on the market in Marin today. The numbers may make the jaw drop but the photos prove the quality matches the cost.
