Some homes are simply places to live. Others become part of a family's history.



For nearly 50 years, 144 Hacienda Drive has been held and treasured by the same family. Perched high above Tiburon, the home has remained a constant through decades of change—looking out across the San Francisco Bay, Golden Gate Bridge, Angel Island, and city skyline. Today, it is being offered for sale for the first time in nearly half a century.


A Home Designed Around Its Setting

Built in 1963, 144 Hacienda occupies approximately half an acre on a quiet, level street. Its elevated position and walls of glass allow the surrounding landscape and Bay views to become part of everyday life.


Some of the qualities that have made this property special for generations include:

  • Unobstructed Bay and Golden Gate Bridge views from nearly every principal room

  • An approximately ½-acre setting with expansive outdoor space

  • Two view decks for taking in the surrounding landscape

  • A quiet, private street that feels removed from the activity below

  • A flexible 5-bedroom, 4-bath floor plan with spaces for gathering, working, hosting, and relaxing

  • A setting that has been held and enjoyed by one family for nearly five decades


More Than the Property Line


One of the more unusual parts of the home's story lies just beyond it.


Longtime neighborhood residents have enjoyed access to nearby open space for decades. According to the seller, when access was challenged years ago, a group of roughly 20 longtime neighbors came together to preserve their ability to use it. Today, access continues through a combination gate shared among those homes.


For the family at 144 Hacienda, that meant having a beautiful place just beyond home to walk the dog, get outside, and enjoy the natural surroundings—sometimes multiple times a day.


It's a small detail, but one that speaks to something much larger: 144 Hacienda isn't just about the view from the windows. It's about the lifestyle that has surrounded the home for generations.


The Beginning of Its Next Chapter

Homes held for this long don't come to market often. After nearly 50 years of memories, gatherings, changing seasons, and sunsets over the Bay, 144 Hacienda is ready for someone new to make it their own.


The architecture may evolve. A new owner may bring new ideas and a new vision. But the extraordinary setting—the privacy, open space, and views that have defined life here for decades—remains.
