Find your Peace
in the Embrace of Nature
38°03"03"N / 122°49'05"W
Perfectly positioned at the southern edge of Inverness Ridge—where the rugged drama of the Point Reyes Peninsula softens into the pastoral beauty of Olema Valley—this extraordinary landscape invites an immediate exhale. From a thoughtfully chosen clearing, the land opens to sunlit views, its ideal southeast orientation offering both warmth and light throughout the day.
In a fast-moving world, this is a place of rare stillness. Encompassing 20 acres of prime coastal terrain, 70 Fox Drive represents a singular offering—the largest residential parcel currently available in the Point Reyes / Inverness area. Here, privacy, scale, and natural beauty converge to create a truly exceptional canvas. Whether envisioned as a legacy estate for generations to gather, a secluded retreat for reflection and creativity, or a wellness sanctuary rooted in restoration and connection, the land is poised to bring your vision to life.
Wander freely through open meadows and into sheltered groves of mature trees, all within the bounds of your own property. Wake each morning immersed in nature, far removed from the noise of everyday life, with seasonal streams weaving quietly through the land and migratory paths overhead along the Pacific Flyway—including the elusive Northern spotted owl.
The property is adjacent to Point Reyes National Seashore, renowned for its pristine beaches, herds of wild tule elk, and extensive hiking trails. At the same time, it offers remarkable accessibility—just an hour to the Golden Gate Bridge, and mere minutes from the charming enclaves of Inverness and Point Reyes Station. This rare combination of seclusion and convenience makes the location truly unparalleled.
The homesite itself was selected with intention and care. A famed architectural visionary and ordained Buddhist priest spent countless hours walking this land, ultimately choosing a site guided by a deep reverence for balance, light, and the seamless integration of structure and landscape. Beyond this initial vantage point, the land invites further exploration—revealing new perspectives, microclimates, and potential settings that may be equally compelling. The incredible scale of this property allows for the possibility of additional homesites yet to be discovered.
Importantly, the path from vision to reality has already been set in motion. Fully approved architectural, structural, and septic plans are included with the sale. The build site has been cleared, the building pad thoughtfully prepared, and foundation work has already commenced. Water and power are in place at the site, complemented by an existing, producing well. In every sense, the groundwork has been laid—this rare offering allows you to transition seamlessly into building, bypassing the often unpredictable entitlement process.
This is more than land—it is a ready-made foundation for something enduring, grounded, and deeply connected to place. All that remains is to build the dream.

Neighborhood
Situated along Marin County's western coastline, Inverness combines natural beauty with small-town living. The community borders Point Reyes National Seashore, where Tomales Bay meets the rolling coastal hills, creating a stunning backdrop for daily life.
The architectural character of Inverness reflects its natural setting, with rustic cottages and homes designed to complement the landscape. These residences often feature natural materials and traditional coastal designs that have become characteristic of the area.
Outdoor activities form the heart of community life. The surrounding area provides extensive hiking trails, protected waters for kayaking, prime spots for birdwatching, and miles of untouched beaches and forests within the national seashore. The natural environment makes Inverness particularly attractive to residents interested in outdoor recreation and wildlife observation.
The town center maintains a deliberately simple character, with essential amenities including local cafes, a general store, and several art galleries. This modest commercial presence helps preserve the peaceful atmosphere that defines the community. The slower pace and emphasis on natural surroundings create an environment where residents can fully appreciate the coastal setting and tight-knit community connections.
