Greenbrae Real Estate

Convenient Living in the Rolling Hills of Central Marin

Located in the heart of Marin County, Greenbrae real estate was developed in the 40's to grace wooded streets that wind through flatlands and hills north of Sir Frances Drake Boulevard.

Part of Greenbrae is in the Town of Larkspur in 1949 and the rest is in unincorporated Marin County.

Most Greenbrae real estate climbs the hill to the north, enjoying panoramic views to the North Bay, East Bay, and Mt. Tamalpais. There is a renaissance in the Greenbrae hills as owners remodel and modernize their solidly built homes.

Homes on the south side of Greenbrae face the widest part of the Corte Madera creek as it reaches the San Francisco Bay.

Greenbrae is ideal for commuters to the East Bay or San Francisco, situated just minutes from Highway 101, the Larkspur Ferry Terminal, and the Richmond-San Rafael bridge.

Central to the Greenbrae is the Bon Air Shopping Center offering cafes, an excellent grocery store, specialty boutiques, services, and businesses.

Publicly-owned Marin General Hospital, resides in Greenbrae. Specialized services include a Level III Trauma, neonatal intensive care, pediatrics, a family birth center, adult psychiatric units, and cardiac catheterization and electrophysiology laboratories. Many medical services are conveniently located within blocks of the hospital.
