About this property
Charming Spacious Victorian Garden Oasis in the heart of Marin, Gate, Deck, BBQ
Welcome to the Muir Woods–Inspired Garden Retreat — the perfect getaway for making unforgettable memories with family, friends, and furry companions. Whether you're attending a nearby wedding, visiting loved ones, or exploring Northern California’s top destinations, this gated redwood sanctuary offers the perfect mix of tranquility, charm, and convenience. Ideally located in Marin County between San Francisco and Napa Valley with easy freeway access.
Crafted with rich redwood and surrounded by lush, landscaped gardens, our cozy and immaculately clean home blends natural beauty with modern comfort. Step inside and instantly feel at ease — the warmth, character, and charm of the space make it the kind of place where conversations linger, kids play freely, and glasses are raised in celebration.
🛏 The Layout
With 3 comfortable bedrooms (2 King Suites + a Full/Full bedroom), 2.5 bathrooms, and generous common areas, there’s plenty of room for everyone to spread out and settle in. The spacious living room features an oversized, ultra-plush sofa, perfect for movie nights or quiet moments with a good book. The farmhouse-style dining room seats 8+ and offers a cozy fireplace for meaningful meals and conversations.
👨🍳 Fully Stocked Kitchen
Whip up everything from a simple breakfast to a celebratory feast in the fully equipped kitchen — complete with a gas stove, large oven, oversized fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave, barista coffee setup, rice cooker, crock pot, sharp knives, and BBQ tools.
🌴 Outdoor Living
Step outside to your private backyard oasis: palm trees sway above, songbirds flutter through, and the sun-drenched deck with outdoor dining and gas BBQ invites alfresco meals, stargazing, or a glass of wine under the twinkling string lights. The fully fenced yard is perfect for kids and pets, and the gated driveway includes an EV charger for added ease.
📍 Walk to Everything
Skip the car! You’re just a 5–10 minute walk to neighborhood favorites like Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Peet’s Coffee, Planet Juice, Chipotle, and more. Or take a scenic 15-minute stroll to charming Downtown San Rafael.
