Exceptional Ross Lifestyle!

Just 18 miles north of San Francisco over the Golden Gate Bridge, Ross is one of the most beautiful and upscale small towns in Marin. The town center includes the Ross Common, the nationally renowned K-8 Ross School and the charming Ross downtown. The appeal of extraordinary homes gives the town of Ross its distinctive character with only about 884 housing units and 2450 residents, creating a strong sense of community. 

The Town Council strives to preserve and enhance its historical, low-density character and identity. Ross is spacious, extremely safe, and offers schools that continually rank among the highest in the nation. One of its crown jewels is the Marin Art and Garden Center, which features art, history, horticulture, and environmental programs, as well as a summer concert series. The Ross Valley Players produces diverse, professional-quality live theater. 

Ross also provides easy access to the abundant Mount Tamalpais hiking and biking trails, and it's easy to spend an entire day on Mount Tamalpais. Nearby Phoenix Lake offers great outdoor recreation with views of the surrounding hills. Local families can be found relaxing on the Ross Common, or picnicking, hiking, biking, and fishing around Phoenix Lake. Ross Recreation offers diverse recreational programs for all ages, and public tennis and pickleball courts can be found at Frederick Allen Park. Diners can choose from fun local restaurants like Tony Tutto's Pizzeria or French provincial cuisine at Marche aux Fleurs, a restaurant noted for its elegant garden dining and menu featuring the freshest, local seasonal ingredients available. The acclaimed Branson School, a private 9-12 school, is set on a verdant campus in Ross.
