Classic 1955 Eichler in Terra Linda one of Marin's most beloved mid-century modern neighborhoods. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,512 sq ft of iconic Joseph Eichler design on a flat, fully fenced 6,600 sq ft lot. Original globe lights and rich mahogany paneling preserve the authentic mid-century character that Eichler enthusiasts know and love. The kitchen opens to the dining room in true Eichler fashion, and the private front courtyard and rear yard is ready for its next chapter. This home has been sitting empty and is ready for a visionary buyer to restore it to its full potential. The bones are here the opportunity is rare. A 2-car garage, driveway parking for two additional vehicles, flat lot, and a classic floor plan that lends itself beautifully to a thoughtful renovation. Situated in the highly regarded Miller Creek School District and just minutes from a public pool, parks, and miles of Marin hiking trails, this is the kind of property that does not come along often. Priced at $990,000, this is your chance to own a piece of Marin architectural history and make it your own. Offered As-Is. Buyer to verify all information independently. This is a probate sale.
