Coveted Gerstle Park Location

Located in one of San Rafael’s most historic and picturesque neighborhoods, Gerstle Park blends charm, convenience, and natural beauty. You’ll find tree-lined streets and an architectural mix—from vintage Victorian and Arts & Crafts bungalows to thoughtfully updated mid-century homes—creating a timeless sense of place.

At the heart of the neighborhood is Gerstle Park, a lush green retreat featuring walking paths, playgrounds, picnic areas, and open fields. Just a short stroll away, Boyd Memorial Park and the Boyd Gate House / Marin History Museum enrich the area with cultural and historical depth. Nearby community hubs include the Albert J. Boro Community Center, offering recreation, programming, and gathering spaces for all ages.

Despite its serene, residential feel, Gerstle Park is just minutes from downtown’s Fourth Street scene—with distinctive boutiques, cozy cafés, and essential services like United Markets and Whole Foods Market (San Rafael). Commuters benefit from seamless regional access via the SMART train and the Larkspur Ferry Terminal, offering ferry service into San Francisco. The nearby San Rafael Transit Center serves as a major intermodal hub connecting buses, SMART trains, and more.

Living in Gerstle Park means enjoying the best of both worlds: a peaceful, tight-knit neighborhood with effortless access to parks, culture, shopping, dining, and Bay Area transportation.

With its single-level layout, modern amenities, and abundant outdoor space, this property is a rare find in a coveted location.

More about San Rafael, California

San Rafael is Marin’s oldest and largest city, with a population of close to 60,000 people. Established in 1874, it is the seat of the County of Marin and is home to Marin’s second most popular tourist destination (after Muir Woods), the Frank Lloyd Wright Civic Center. The building was the last major structure and the only government building designed by the world famous architect. It is now a national historic landmark and hosts one of the country’s best farmers markets each Thursday (seasonal, downtown) and Sunday (year-round).

Named after the Mission San Rafael Archangel, built by Spanish missionaries in 1817, San Rafael is located 11 miles north of San Francisco. The area enjoys some of the best weather in Marin as it is largely free of the coastal fog that areas closer to San Francisco experience. At the city’s heart is its charming, vibrant downtown shopping district which is a mixture of Victorian commercial buildings, ethnic restaurants, street cafes, retail stores, a historic movie theater and numerous music venues, giving San Rafael its hometown flavor.
