Tiburon & Belvedere

Waterfront Living with Timeless Appeal

Tiburon: Where Coastal Relaxation Meets Everyday Convenience

Once a bustling railroad hub, Tiburon has evolved into one of Marin County’s most desirable destinations. Its walkable downtown—centered along Main Street and Ark Row—features waterfront restaurants, local boutiques, art galleries, and cafés.

Residents enjoy direct ferry access to San Francisco and Angel Island, along with easy outdoor recreation, from the flat and scenic Old Rail Trail to panoramic hiking and biking routes across the peninsula.

Old Tiburon

One of the town’s most historic and scenic areas, Old Tiburon combines coastal views, character-filled homes, and a front-row seat to the bay. Just a short stroll from downtown and the ferry terminal, it offers a uniquely walkable lifestyle with a timeless Marin feel.

Paradise Cay

A boater’s dream, this quiet enclave features canal-lined streets where many homes come with private docks and direct access to San Francisco Bay. Life here centers around the water, with wide streets, open skies, and a strong sense of privacy and retreat.

Little Reed Heights

Tucked into the hillside just before going further into Tiburon downtown, Little Reed Heights offers a variety of home styles, some with bay or hillside views. The neighborhood feels private yet connected—Reed Elementary School sits at the base of the slope, and the Tiburon Library is just a short walk away.

Turtle Rock

Set along quiet, curving roads and nestled in the hills, Turtle Rock offers a calm, nature-rich environment with a sense of seclusion. Many homes enjoy peaceful outlooks, and the neighborhood is popular among those looking for serenity without being too far from town.

The Cove

A relaxed waterfront community of townhomes and condominiums offering low-maintenance living with direct shoreline access and shared amenities. With nearby walking trails and open green spaces, it’s a great match for those seeking simplicity, connection, and coastal beauty.

Belvedere: Island Exclusivity with Unmatched Bay Views

Adjacent to Tiburon, Belvedere is a serene, purely residential island town known for its elegant homes, manicured landscapes, and extraordinary water views. With no commercial zoning, Belvedere offers a quiet and exclusive retreat surrounded on all sides by water.

The town comprises two natural islands—Belvedere Island and Corinthian Island—connected to the Tiburon Peninsula by causeways and bridges. These islands are home to historic estates, yacht clubs, and lush gardens. Nestled between the two islands and the Tiburon shoreline is the Belvedere Lagoon neighborhood, a unique community of 232 private residences and 28 duplexes, offering a rare blend of community feel and waterfront living.

Both towns are served by the highly regarded Reed Union School District, which includes Reed Elementary (grades K–2), Bel Aire Elementary (grades 3–5), and Del Mar Middle School (grades 6–8). The district is known for academic excellence and community involvement, with multiple California Distinguished School recognitions. High school students typically attend Redwood High School in nearby Larkspur, part of the Tamalpais Union High School District.

Real estate in Tiburon and Belvedere ranges from storybook cottages and mid-century modern gems to grand estates perched above the bay. Whether you're watching the fog roll in from your veranda, setting sail from a private dock, or enjoying a sunset dinner downtown, life in Tiburon and Belvedere feels like a permanent vacation—just minutes from the heart of the Bay Area.
