Tucked into the much-sought-after Cascades neighborhood with stunning views of Mt. Tamalpais, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath retreat offers the privacy and peace you've been craving. Flooded with natural light and set back from the street, the home strikes that perfect balance of open outdoor space and quiet seclusion. A generous yard and expansive deck invite morning coffee with the mountain as your backdrop, afternoon gardening and evenings under the stars. With a recently replaced roof and sewer lateral, you can move in with total confidence rather than a to-do list. All this, just minutes from downtown Fairfax, world-class trails and top-rated schools - all good things!
