About this House

Affectionately named the “Secret Garden” house, Casa de Monte Mar sits overlooking Sausalito and the bay, perched on the hill with a stunning view of Angel Island and the Tiburon peninsula. This house was originally built in 1954 and was the home of Sam Zakazian, who was the infamous and colorful owner of Zak’s Restaurant and the visionary for the famous Turtle Races in Sausalito, which set the stage for Sausalito’s vibrant waterfront community of artists, entrepreneurs, and dreamers alike. The town was and is alive with eccentric and eclectic people from all walks of life.



This gem of Sausalito is hidden, down just enough from the road to offer those who live here privacy, peace, and tranquility. The front garden is lush with a variety of plants, flowers, and hummingbirds and is a wonderful place to sit in the hot tub at night and enjoy the stars.



From the large deck off the main living area, you overlook the entire lot which runs street to street and you will find your own area to grow vegetables, herbs, and fruit in the garden along with various fruit trees, roses, and other plants that invite birds, bees and squirrels to visit.



The downstairs was finished off in 2021 to enhance the house with a large great room, bar/kitchen, wine cellar, bedroom, and a full bath. This area has heated floors throughout, dimmer switches, and the same beautiful view as above.
51 Monte Mar Dr, Sausalito, CA 94965 is a 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom, 2,685 sqft single-family home built in 1954. It last sold for $1,700,000 on May 13, 2004. This property is not currently displayed as for sale or rent on Trulia. The Trulia Estimate is $3,466,800.

    "Lots of fun kiddo things to do. Bad grade school (K-5th) public schools. The middle school and high schools are in the next city up ( one exit) and are quite good. Otherwise, the southern marin mothers group is very active here for noms of young kids and there are several fantastic private school for all educational philosophies. Overall, a great city for kids. Lots of tourist activity, but strong neighbor support. Lots of parks public spaces and restaurants that are kid friendly. "
