Ross Real Estate

Ross Homes, Market Trends & more


Ross is a tiny town tucked just beyond Kentfield with a quaint downtown area centered on the Ross Common. The lovely little downtown has a grocery store (the Ross Grocery has been operated by the same family since WWII), post office, butcher, florist, a few small cafes and offices. The locally owned stores contribute a strong feeling of community to this causally chic town. The Marin Art & Garden Center is a beautiful ten-acre site that houses several non-profit community groups, and offers many activities including a playground and picnic areas. Ross also features some great hiking and biking, and some of the most prominent estates anywhere.

 
 ROSS HOMES
 

Ross contains some of the oldest and most gracious estates in the country. Architectural styles vary from Victorian to contemporary, and most Ross homes are well hidden behind park-like settings. Ross real estate is pricey in this ultra-exclusive spot, and stanch zoning restrictions result in practically no new development.

The average sold price in the Ross MLS for 2011 was $2,877,714 for a single-family home. Ross real estate sales are down the last several years.
