Once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to live in this iconic San Anselmo property. The Church is an architecturally sensitive residential conversion of one of Marin's most storied recording studios. Before its deconsecration and musical chapter, the building originally comprised two Presbyterian churches with 22-foot ceilings. In the mid-20th century, the congregation outgrew the original sanctuary and constructed a second building next door. What began as a place of worship later evolved into a sought-after recording studio in the 1960s, '70s, and '80s, hosting renowned artists such as Van Morrison, Boz Scaggs, Jefferson Starship, and Huey Lewis, among many others.

An additional structure on the property, rich with its own history, is The Rectory, a charming cottage set in a magical setting, offering two bedrooms and one bath. It also holds a unique place in cycling lore as an early hub in the birth of the mountain bike, when Gary Fisher and Charlie Kelly lived there while working as roadies for bands recording at the studio.
