A Private Island Sanctuary in San Francisco Bay

As your dedicated Belvedere real estate agent, I specialize in this unique market where luxury waterfront estates, panoramic Bay views, and sophisticated island living create an unparalleled lifestyle just minutes from San Francisco.
Connected to Tiburon by a narrow causeway, Belvedere Island maintains an intimate, village-like atmosphere while offering some of Marin County's most spectacular properties. This 0.52 square mile island community of approximately 2,000 residents features tree-lined streets, meticulously maintained estates, and 360-degree water views from many properties.
Belvedere real estate represents the pinnacle of Bay Area luxury living. Properties range from Mediterranean-style villas to contemporary architectural masterpieces, many with private docks, expansive terraces, and unobstructed views of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco skyline, Angel Island, and Richardson Bay.
Belvedere Lagoon: The heart of the island features the protected Belvedere Lagoon, surrounded by some of the community's most prestigious estates. Properties here often include private docks and direct water access, with the lagoon providing a serene, harbor-like setting.
West Shore Road: This coveted waterfront street offers some of Belvedere's most impressive estates with direct Bay frontage, private beaches, and sweeping views. Properties along West Shore Road command premium prices and represent the ultimate in waterfront luxury living.
Belvedere Avenue: Running along the island's spine, Belvedere Avenue features grand estates with elevated positions offering panoramic Bay views. These properties combine privacy, views, and prestige in one of Marin's most sought-after locations.
Beach Road: Waterfront properties along Beach Road provide intimate access to the Bay, private docks, and stunning sunset views across Richardson Bay toward Mount Tamalpais.
Golden Gate Avenue and Cliff Road: These prime locations offer spectacular Golden Gate Bridge and San Francisco views, with properties ranging from classic Mediterranean estates to modern architectural statements.
The Belvedere real estate market is characterized by limited inventory and strong demand from discerning buyers seeking the Bay Area's most exclusive addresses. Property values typically range from $3 million to well over $20 million, with waterfront estates commanding premium prices.
The median home price in Belvedere is approximately $5 million, significantly higher than surrounding Marin communities, reflecting the island's exclusivity, waterfront locations, and prestigious reputation. Properties with Golden Gate Bridge views, private docks, or significant water frontage are particularly sought after.
Due to the island's small size and limited inventory, Belvedere homes for sale attract serious buyers from San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and international markets. Well-presented properties in prime locations often receive multiple offers, even at luxury price points.
Belvedere residents enjoy a unique island lifestyle combining natural beauty, privacy, and urban convenience. The community maintains a low-key, sophisticated atmosphere where neighbors know each other and local events bring residents together.
While Belvedere itself is primarily residential, neighboring Tiburon (just across the causeway) offers shopping, dining, and services along Main Street and Ark Row. San Francisco is accessible via a 15-minute drive across the Golden Gate Bridge or a scenic ferry ride from nearby Tiburon.
The island's extensive walking paths, well-maintained streets, and spectacular views make daily walks a cherished ritual for residents. The community takes pride in preserving the island's natural beauty and architectural character.
Belvedere's waterfront location provides residents with immediate access to sailing, kayaking, and paddleboarding on Richardson Bay. Many properties include private docks accommodating boats of various sizes.
The nearby Tiburon Peninsula offers additional recreational opportunities including hiking trails with Bay views, the scenic San Francisco Bay Trail, and access to Angel Island State Park (accessible by ferry). Mount Tamalpais State Park's extensive trail network is just minutes away.
Belvedere is served by the Reed Union School District, which includes Bel Aire Elementary School and Reed Elementary School (both highly rated). Middle school students attend Del Mar Middle School in Tiburon, known for academic excellence.
High school students attend Redwood High School in Larkspur, consistently ranked among California's top public high schools. Many Belvedere families also choose prestigious private schools throughout Marin County and San Francisco.
Despite its island setting, Belvedere offers excellent commute access to San Francisco and Silicon Valley. The Golden Gate Bridge is approximately 15 minutes away, providing direct access to San Francisco. The Tiburon Ferry (a short walk or drive from Belvedere) offers a scenic commute to San Francisco's Ferry Building.
Many Belvedere residents work in San Francisco's financial district or tech companies throughout the Bay Area, appreciating the ability to return home to a tranquil island retreat after a busy workday.
Belvedere maintains an active community life with events throughout the year. The Belvedere Community Center hosts gatherings, classes, and activities. Annual events like the Belvedere-Tiburon Library's fundraisers and community celebrations bring residents together.
The Belvedere Land Company, formed in 1890, continues to maintain common areas and uphold community standards that preserve the island's character and property values.
Belvedere real estate showcases diverse architectural styles, from classic Mediterranean and Colonial Revival estates to sleek contemporary masterpieces. Many properties feature expansive windows capturing Bay views, outdoor living spaces, infinity pools, and luxurious finishes.
