This cozy studio is surrounded by redwood trees and a paved terraced garden. Very light with a full kitchen including a gas stove, microwave, toaster, blender, electric tea kettle, refrigerator. Very comfortable queen size bed. We just installed a lovely merino wool carpet and the unit is newly painted. It is located within walking distance of a great grocery store, College of Marin and there are many wonderful restaurants close by. The garden is yours to use at your leisure; surrounded by redwood trees and a view of Mount Tam. There are biking and hiking trails nearby, a movie theater and the Marin Art and Garden Center. Only 5 minutes from the freeway and 20 minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge, and usually 10 to 20 degrees warmer than San Francisco, Sausalito and Mill Valley. If you want a to stay in the Bay Area and avoid the fog, this is the place to be especially if you are interested in exploring Napa, Sonoma and the coastal areas like Stinson Beach and Point Reyes.

About France Israel
I am a native San Franciscan and new to Kentfield. My son and I live in the house attached to the studio. I work from home and am available to answer any questions, and help in any way I can to make your stay pleasant and comfortable.
Why France Israel chose Larkspur
I love light and being surrounded by nature. The redwood grove in the garden is unique and I never tire of the view of Mount Tamalpais.
What makes this Studio unique
We just love this area of Marin. It is warm and quiet and the view of Mount Tam never ceases to make my day. I hike or ride my bike almost every day right from the front door. Unlike San Francisco, parking is plentiful. There are lots of good restaurants nearby and several movie theaters. We couldn't be happier in our new home and our new environment and we look forward to sharing the joy with our guests.

Great Property and Hostess!
This property was in a great location, well equipped, and very clean. Francis was very welcoming and helpful. We would definitely go back there again.
As usual Francis was cordial
The place is a hidden treasure
GREAT LOCATION--VERY CLEAN AND COMFORTABLE
Charming accomodation with great bed. Nice little kitchen with 600 year old Redwood tree outside the window! Close to great market, cafes, bakery and 5 minute drive to Larkspur Ferry Landing to San Francisco .
Perfect Marin location
The studio was located within minutes of our friends and wonderful restaurants so was extremely convenient for our visit. It is also just a short drive to Hwy 101 to get to both San Francisco and the Bay Bridge to Oakland where we visited more family and friends. Everything was clean and comfortable. Very quiet too. France greeted us warmly and was a good host. We loved the ancient redwood tree outside the kitchen window and the other greenery on and around the property. We will recommend to anyone going to the area who only require a studio.
Very happy to stay here
Everything is as described, the rooms are meticulously prepared for one or two guests. Central Marin location is really ideal. France is always available but never intrusive.
Comfortable, attractive; met all our needs.
Great location with convenient parking.
