Marin County Real Estate | Greenbrae Real Estate

Greenbrae Housing

Some say this area looks more like Southern California. Expanded ranch style homes on nicely landscaped lots in subdivision like settings. Some spectacular views from up high, but some highway noise can accompany. Many condominium, apartments and senior housing facilities overlook the water on the creek side. Some of the apartments along South Eliseo are especially choice, as they are on one level and have beautiful views of Corte Madera Creek and Mt. Tam.

Greenbrae Real Estate

Greenbrae is  site of an old dairy ranch, and has its modern roots in the family of Niels Schultz Sr., a pioneer Marin developer who liked the sound of "brae," Scottish for hillside. The family bought the 700-acre Greenbrae Ranch near Larkspur in 1946. To this day, the family owns a great deal of real estate throughout Greenbrae, including a number of apartment buildings on Spyglass Hill.

Greenbrae Schools

The Kentfield School District is widely regarded as one of Marin’s best, and for that reason, you’ll pay more to live within its boundaries. In the past eleven year, the district has received numerous county, state and national awards for its excellent programs, and students do very well on standardized tests. The affluent parent community is very supportive of the schools, raising hundreds of thousands of dollars each year. Major renovations have recently taken place on both the Bacich (elementary) and Kent (middle school) campuses. Most graduates of this district attend Redwood High School in Larkspur. The highly regarded Marin Catholic High School, which regularly dominates the Marin Athletic League in many sports, is located in this area.
