Marin Estates and Mariner/Mira Vista Highlands

The Marin Estates, Mariner Highlands, and Mira Vista Highlands in East Corte Madera climb the hill along the Bay. At the top of the hill is the beautiful Ring Mountain – Tiburon Open Space Preserve. East Corte Madera homes were built in the late 1950s through the mid-1960s. Sturdy family homes have typically 3 to 4 bedrooms on one or two levels. The neighborhood contains one large condominium complex, Mariner Green, also built in the 1960s.

Location

Location is everything, with convenient access to the freeway and all of central and southern Marin. Though the neighborhoods are in Corte Madera, about 90% use Tiburon’s Reed school district – a great advantage for young families with school-age children. Because of their excellent location, many of these homes have been extensively upgraded and remodeled.

Streets in Marin Estates and Mariner Highlands begin on the flat lands closest to the Bay and climb the hill toward Ring Mountain to afford views of the Bay and Mount Tamalpais.

Marin Estates starts just south of the Paradise Shopping Center. The major streets are Granada and Prince Royal Drives. Mariner and Mira Vista Highlands are further south, with nautical street names, like Windward, Endeavour, and Privateer.
