Classic House Design by Turnbull Griffin Haesloop Architects in Sausalito
Built in 1869, this is the oldest house in Sausalito. Sited along a creek, the original building is a simple clapboard farmhouse with high ceilings. The house had been added onto in the 1920’s when plumbing was introduced.

A deck now connects the house to its large side yard and the creek.
