Set in the sunny Terra Linda neighborhood, 776 Montecillo is a thoughtfully reimagined Eichler that stays true to its midcentury roots while embracing the updates that appeal to today's buyer. The home has been completely remodeled with a clear intention: preserve the architectural simplicity that defines Eichler design while introducing materials, systems, and finishes that feel current. Inside, the home is bright and open, with the clean lines and indoor-outdoor connection Eichlers are known for. The main living space flows easily between kitchen, dining, and living areas, all centered on the kitchen anchored by a waterfall island and stunning cabinetry. Carefully selected finishes add subtle texture while letting the architecture remain the focus. The 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom layout is comfortable and functional, with the primary suite positioned to take advantage of the surrounding outdoor space. The window wall looks out to the yard, with a sliding glass door that opens directly outside, reinforcing the home's connection to nature. The en-suite bath features a large shower and double vanity, while the closet systems add thoughtful organization and storage. Outside, the newly fenced yard offers room to gather, unwind, and cook under the open sky with a wood-burning outdoor oven as an inviting extension of the home's living space. Beyond the design, extensive upgrades address many of the structural and system components in midcentury homes, allowing the next owner to simply move in and enjoy the home as it was intended. Living in Terra Linda offers a balance that's increasingly hard to findquiet residential streets surrounded by open space, with everyday conveniences just minutes away. Within one block sits the entrance of Open Space, where miles of trails wind through the hills. It's the kind of access that makes early morning hikes, trail runs, or evening walks part of the rhythm of daily life. At the same time, the neighborhood is closely connected to the Marin community. Scotty's Market, The Monk's Kettle, and everyday services are just minutes away, while the Terra Linda Community Center and pool serve as a gathering point for residents. Quick access to HWY 101 also makes it easy to reach downtown San Rafael, neighboring towns, and the wider Bay Area. For those who appreciate midcentury architecture, outdoor access, and the relaxed pace of Marin living, 776 Montecillo offers a home that feels both grounded in its history and ready for modern life.
