The Strand at the Loch Lomand Marina is a brand new development of 81 townhomes and single family residences along the San Pablo Bay waterfront in East San Rafael. Waterfront living combined with New Construction in Marin is rare, unique and incredibly special.

The Strand is not just another housing development but a thoughtful, well planned community that incorporates tasteful finishes, interesting architectural details, community and waterfront amenities.  Situated in East San Rafael, The Strands location offers easy access to Highway 101, at the Central San Rafael exit just a short 17 miles from the Golden Gate Bridge, making this an ideal commute location. The bay provides a lovely cooling breeze in the summer and stunning views of scenic wetlands and the Richmond San Rafael Bridge.

The homes offer high end finishes throughout with a focus on green building and energy efficient practices. Smart and functional floor plans with living on main level and bedrooms on upper level all with in-unit laundry and attached 2 car garage! What! How many townhomes have a 2-car garage? I can tell you...not many.

San Rafael is the center of Marin County, the county seat and home to the iconic Frank Lloyd Wright designed Civic Center complex and The Dominican University.  It's also my hometown and one I am proud to have grown up in. The city has changed and morphed over the years but it remains the hub and life blood of Marin County. A variety of neighborhoods offering an array of architectural styles from Spanish and Mediterranean bungalows to historic Victorians and the biggest collection of Eichler homes in the country.

The Strand is a wonderful addition to the San Rafael neighborhoods, replacing an undeveloped and under utilized patch of waterfront land with a true community that takes advantage of it's location on this waterway we often take for granted. Live in San Rafael, CA 94901 - It truly has a lot to offer!

Intrigued by this new community that seems to good to be true? It's real and homes are still available. Call me and I can set up a private showing and meeting with the sales team.
