This location will unlock access to the highly sought-after schools of San Anselmo. Wade Thomas Elementary (9/10*) (0.5 miles); White Hill Middle School (8/10*) (3.3 miles) and Archie Williams High School (8/10*) (1 mile). The history is as follows: Three sisters, the daughters of a Sea Captain for the China Merchants’ Steam Navigation Company, came back from Shanghai in the early 1900’s and made The Barber Tract of San Anselmo’s Winship district their home. Each retained a special architect to build their three homes – Bernard Maybeck, Julia Morgan and Garden Mitchell. Nellie Eudora gave the nod to W. Garden Mitchell an architect of local renown who had already created the San Anselmo library and town hall in the Spanish Revival Style. Mitchell was to be inspired by his contact with Julia Morgan who was working with Nellie’s sister at the Newell house below on Prospect. * GreatSchools Summary Rating
