Purportedly won in a bet, the Bay Area's only private island a short distance from the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge is up for sale with an asking price of $25 million.

Purportedly won in a bet, the Bay Area's only private island is up for sale with an asking price of $25 million. A tour of one of Chris Lim's real estate listings in the San Francisco Bay Area requires a trip on the water. As the former president of Christie's International Real Estate, he's had his fair share of unique listings. 'I've been selling real estate for 21 years. I love a really interesting challenge,' he said. 'A fire house, a church, a parking spot.

'Legend has it, nobody has lived on the island since the 1850's, long before the San Francisco skyline sprouted up, a big selling point to Lim. 'It really is an iconic view,' he said. 'It's one of the most unique and iconic private islands in the entire world.' Over the last 50 years, ideas to develop the island have never come to fruition. At one point in the 1980's, there was talk of building a casino there.
