Buy A Floating Home Near San Francisco | Rare House Boats For Sale Sausalito, CA

Imagine opening your bedroom window and being greeted by the salty air, seeing a school of pelicans and other seabirds fly by, watch playful seals, and hitting the water on a kayak or stand-up paddleboard to wind down after work.

That is exactly what you get when you live in a Sausalito floating home.

Sausalito has been characterized as a quaint Mediterranean-style seaside town and is located 6 miles north of San Francisco.

The town also plays host to a unique community of floating homes, and a limited number are now available for you to buy.

The houseboat at 10 West Pier is one of the larger ones currently available, at 1400 square feet. It offers you vaulted ceilings and generous sized skylights, three decks, and a great view of the water from both the living room and the large master bedroom.

From the large rooftop skydeck, you also get amazing views of the other floating homes, the marina, and Mount Tamalpais.

On average, houseboats have gone up about 10% a year for the past several years. Indeed, according to Marin County Housing Data, homes in Sausalito have doubled in the last 10 years.

Owing to the fact that most houseboat owners in the community are not interested in selling, turnover is relatively low. As a result, you won’t find an opportunity like this very often.

The town is situated near the northern end of the Golden Gate Bridge, making it easily accessible to the greater San Francisco area.

If you’re interested in living and commuting, there is a 30-minute ferry that goes directly to downtown. You can be assured that you aren’t the only one who says it sounds perfect.

Richardson Bay, where the floating homes are located, is abundant in sea life, and also home to seabirds, ducks, and Canadian geese.
