Situated on more than 34 acres, which includes a 1.5-acre vineyard, wine-making facility and an oil-producing olive orchard, the property boasts incredible panoramic views of Napa Valley, Sonoma Valley, Mount Diablo, the San Francisco Bay and skyline as well as Mt. Tamalpais and the bucolic rolling hills of the Mayacamas.

147 Beach Road, Belevedere
$7,995,000

But the pièce de résistance is the awe-inspiring vistas. Views stretch from the serene Belvedere Cove to Corinthian Island, Angel Island and the San Francisco Bay. Yacht owners, this one is for you — the property is located directly across the street from the prestigious San Francisco Yacht Club where your future slip awaits.
