A popular tourist destination and a world famous community, Sausalito is one of the most well-known cities in the Bay area. From modern view homes located in the wooded hills above Richardson Bay, to floating homes, Sausalito is the epitome of a waterfront community.
Incorporated in 1893, Sausalito is one of the older communities in the area. It was first settled in the mid-19th century. Spanish explorers named the area for the willow trees that grew abundantly along underground springs and streams. Today, Sausalito is a colorful town reminiscent of a Mediterranean village.
The city, just across the bay from San Francisco, boasts eccentric and eclectic house boats and picturesque homes peeking out from the wood laden hills. Condominiums and high end homes provide elegant living with fantastic views of the city and the bay. In terms of residences, there is something for everyone in Sausalito!
Easy and frequent ferry service to and from San Francisco is available, making commuting easy for residents of Sausalito. Because of the town’s location between the bay and the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, it has stayed roughly the same size over the years and occupies just 2.25 sq. miles of land.
With a strong arts community and a thriving tourist trade, Sausalito is a city like no other. The temperate climate, beautiful views, and prized location make this city a most desirable place to call home.
