One of the original lots to sell in Larkspur in the late 1880s, 21 Hawthorne Avenue is a substantial, craftsman-style family home built somewhere between 1902 and 1907. Owned by the Larsen family, “Cap” Larsen was the secretary of the Larkspur Volunteer Firemen’s Association and a driving force behind the RoseBowl dances. "Cap" always enjoyed a “good time” and his home, 21 Hawthorne Avenue, provided a beautiful venue for community gatherings, as well as a refuge for him and his family. One hundred years later, this home continues to be the perfect place to entertain on a grand scale or simply to enjoy all of its quiet pleasures.

Many changes have occurred over the years, and the current owners, Robert and Kathie Green, have lovingly rebuilt this residence with discriminating taste, architectural detailing and superior finishes while maintaining much of its historical integrity and wonderful character. Situated on approximately ½ acre of private, terraced gardens, this outstanding home, with accessibility from either Hawthorne or Laurel/Hazel Avenues, proudly gazes out to downtown Larkspur and the Bay. A quick stroll to restaurants, shops, the library, the Lark Movie Theater and glorious hiking trails, make 21 Hawthorne Avenue an unparalleled property!
