What's around 12790 Sir Francis Drake Boulevard

About this property

Tucked along the tranquil shores of Tomales Bay in the historic village of Inverness, Walt's Cottage (12788) and Smitty's Cottage (12790) offer a rare chance to own a genuine piece of the Northern California coast. Built in 1941 on piers over the sand, these two beloved cottages sit just six feet apart - each under 500 square feet of pure waterfront charm, with one bedroom, one bathroom, a full kitchen, and a cozy living room. Step out onto your private deck, breathe in the salt air, and take in uninterrupted bay views that few properties can match. A grandfathered legal pier extends from the property directly to the water's edge, a feature that simply cannot be replicated under current Coastal regulations. Each cottage, individually named after its longtime owners, carries the warmth of decades of history while offering intimate, turnkey spaces for waterfront living. Vaulted ceilings, skylights, and stained glass details add character inside, while the decks and dock invite long afternoons watching the tide roll in. Whether you dream of a private weekend escape, an artist's retreat, or a legacy holding on Tomales Bay, this is the first time in forty years these two iconic cottages have been offered together. Opportunities like this - on the water, in Inverness, with a legal pier - simply do not come along anymore.
