King Mountain, Kentfield, CA
This 140+ acre ridge top Shangri-La offers a rare opportunity for your client to build a legacy residential compound of unimaginable privacy, beauty, and sheer size in southern, unincorporated Marin County. 128 Ridgecrest Road is better known as King Mountain. The building envelope on a ridgeline atop of King Mountain has 360-degree panoramic views of the city of San Francisco, the towns and cities of the East Bay, and Marin, as well as unobstructed views of the Bay, Bridges, and of course, Mt. Tamalpias, and many of the Bay Area’s most prominent peaks, and surrounding open spaces.
Incredibly, the property is less than 20 minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge, four miles from Highway 101, and yet it is completely private from all surrounding development. In addition to Redwood Groves, Madrones, Oaks, and other native Flaura and Fauna, the land enjoys direct access to hundreds of miles of hiking and riding trails and thousands of acres of open space.
King Mountain is fully vested and entitled, with approved plans for the construction of a legacy compound that includes a main residence, guest residence, caretaker’s home and other auxiliary buildings, as well as a large pond, access roads and pathways, vineyards, horse corrals, and elaborate water features. When complete, the King Mountain Estate will be like no other residential compound in the Bay Area.
