On the foothills of Mt. Tamalpais, overlooking valley and bay, a warm and welcoming setting awaits - perfect for both relaxing “in” and as a home base for your exploration of the delightful offerings found in Marin, San Francisco and the Wine Country. Steeped in nature, convenient to hiking trails with full Bay Area vistas, one is also just a stone's throw from charming shops and fabulous restaurants – a perfect balance of the best of Man and Nature!
Comfortable, artistic furnishings encourage one to be at ease, and create a feeling of intimacy, a place where happy memories are born and tales of the day's adventures are recounted. Whether with friends or family, the space flows easily - with the cooking of a meal, games played, movies watched, naps stolen, toasts made – the fireplace alight – and always outside, the beautiful scene, beckoning one to appreciate the quintessential California landscape.
Newly on the market as a vacation rental, this recently remodeled house is in a safe, quite area. With quick access to both the Scenic Route Hwy.1 and the main north-south Highway, 101, sightseeing and day trips are easy: San Francisco is a 20 minute drive, Muir Beach-10 minutes, Muir Woods – 10 minutes, Stinson Beach -30 minutes...downtown Mill Valley - 5 minutes, Sausalito – 10 minutes, and the Wine Country – 45 minutes. Across the Bay, Berkeley is 30 minutes...and the list goes on!
Mavelous views are visible from the open plan of the Living Room - Dining Room – Kitchen, all of which have hardwood floors with beautiful area rugs. The Living Room features a wood burning fireplace, a flat screen TV with surround sound, a DVD player and a sound system. The unique colors and personal feel make it an ideal gathering place. Plants and flowers bring life and beauty. Spacious and light, it is the heart of the house. Outside the Living Room, a generous tiled deck runs the entire width of the front of the house, and becomes the center of outdoor living. Evenings with lights twinkling in the valley and the moon rising, are unforgettable.
The property offers a spacious, dramatic Master Bedroom with king size bed, a chaise for lounging, and a writing desk. It has a cozy private deck with view, perfect for a glass of wine or morning coffee. A lovely marble bathroom with tub and shower, and a generous walk-in closet complete the picture.
