Prestigious Peacock Estates

Welcome to 616 Biscayne Drive—an exceptional luxury estate in the heart of San Rafael’s prestigious Peacock Estates. Situated on the 8th hole of the Peacock Gap Golf Course, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence offers breathtaking panoramic views of lush fairways and rolling green hills from multiple vantage points—including the primary suite, formal living room, and expansive family room.

Step through grand double doors into a light-filled foyer where volume, height, and openness set the tone for what lies ahead. The home’s layout is masterfully designed for both entertaining and everyday comfort, with soaring ceilings, skylights, French doors, and wide sightlines throughout. Though technically a split-level due to two subtle step-downs, the home lives like a true single-story, offering effortless flow and accessibility.

At the center of the home is a dramatic Great Room-style space where the expansive chef’s kitchen, large eat-in area, and oversized family room come together. The kitchen features quartz countertops, premium Bosch and Viking appliances, a skylight, a generous island, a built-in wet bar, and a double oven—ideal for preparing meals while enjoying the beautiful natural light from the adjacent family room. The family room is a remarkable space for entertaining, featuring vaulted ceilings, a stylish fireplace, and French doors that open onto the sun-soaked deck and lawn, all framed by commanding golf course views.

The living room also enjoys majestic views and abundant natural light, creating a formal yet serene environment with its own elegant fireplace. A formal dining room, distinct from the dining area near the kitchen, provides an additional setting for refined entertaining and holiday gatherings. A private office/library offers a quiet, polished work-from-home retreat.

The primary suite is a private sanctuary with spectacular golf course and hill views, a fireplace, a large walk-in closet, and a spa-caliber bath with soaking tub, dual vanities, and a glass-enclosed shower. Two of the secondary bedrooms are ensuite—including one with a Jack and Jill bathroom, perfect for siblings or guests seeking both privacy and connection. All bedrooms are generously sized.

Additional highlights include a large interior laundry room, an attached three-car garage with ample storage, and a formal entry foyer that immediately communicates the home’s scale and sophistication.
