Step inside and you'll immediately feel the artistry and light of its distinct architecture. The main living level welcomes you with an open-concept kitchen featuring new quartz countertops, a spacious peninsula with seating for three, and stainless-steel appliances, including a new downdraft range. The adjacent dining area fit for a large table flows seamlessly into not one but two spectacular living rooms. Both feature vaulted ceilings, cozy fireplaces, walls of windows, and mesmerizing views that shift with the seasons. The upper level is devoted to the primary suite, offering lovely views, a vaulted ceiling, updated bathroom with two new vanities, a walk-in closet, and a dedicated laundry room. The lower level offers two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a private entrance perfect for guests or a potential ADU setup. Other recent updates include fresh interior paint, designer lighting, flooring, and air conditioning. All this tranquility is just moments from charming downtown Novato, offering the perfect blend of rural charm and urban convenience. Don't miss the opportunity to make this one-of-a-kind retreat your home.
