Some homes impress from the moment you arrive. Others invite you to slow down, settle in and stay awhile. At 1 Sausalito, both come together in a beautifully maintained JM Peters residence tucked at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac in Coto de Caza’s desirable Canyon Estates neighborhood.

Set on an expansive 36,000-square-foot homesite, the property feels wonderfully private and serene, surrounded by mature landscaping and a natural hillside that creates a sense of seclusion increasingly difficult to find. A beautiful stone driveway and thoughtfully designed hardscape create an impressive sense of arrival, setting the tone for the stately residence beyond.

Inside, soaring ceilings and abundant natural light lend an airy elegance to the home, while a gracious four-bedroom, four-and-one-half-bath floor plan offers generous spaces for both everyday living and entertaining. Thoughtfully maintained inside and out, the residence also features a three-car garage, owned solar and a home wired for sound.

Yet it may be the backyard that best captures what makes 1 Sausalito so special. Designed for the relaxed indoor-outdoor lifestyle Southern California does so well, the grounds center around a sparkling saltwater pool and spa, built-in grill and an inviting covered pergola patio anchored by a beautiful stone fireplace. It is a setting made for long summer afternoons, dinners outdoors, evenings around the fire and quiet mornings enjoying the surrounding hillside—where the occasional deer may even wander by.

Beyond the property itself, life in Coto de Caza offers a rare combination of natural beauty, privacy and community. Miles of trails and rolling hills create an idyllic backdrop, while the community’s equestrian heritage and renowned country-club lifestyle give Coto its unmistakable character.

Private, peaceful and beautifully situated, 1 Sausalito is more than an impressive estate—it is the kind of place that makes coming home feel like an escape.
