Belvedere Real Estate
Belvedere homes for sale & more
Belvedere (Italian for
beautiful view) is
an ultra-exclusive community. The entire island consists of
only half a square mile of land, and it is one of the wealthiest
areas in the world. Surrounded by breathtaking views of San
Francisco,
the Golden Gate Bridge, Bay Bridge, Angel Island, Mt. Tamalpais
and the Belvedere Lagoon,
Belvedere is very much like its sister city Tiburon. Belvedere
shares a downtown and many amenities with Tiburon. The
island is infamous, and during summer weekends cars crawl
around it with visitors gawking at the beauty of the area.

Belvedere
homes are some of the most elegant in the Bay Area. The
island is filled with multimillion
dollar homes from top to bottom,
and each one was built to have a beautiful view. Belvedere real estate includes
a trove of different architectures, ranging from the massive
Queen Anne and Mission Revival homes of the 1890s to more
modern Japanese-style and Mediterranean villas. Housing
costs in Belvedere are the most expensive in Marin.
The
average sold price in the Belvedere MLS for 2011 was $2,576,424
for a single-family home. However, Belvedere home values have come down the last few years as has the Marin luxury real estate market on the whole.
