This stylish and contemporary oasis is in an exceptionally private location nestled on nearly two acres of flat and gently sloping terrain adorned with majestic heritage oak trees and views of the surrounding verdant hillsides. 

This extensively and exquisitely remodeled home blends modern luxury with the tranquility of nature, offering an unparalleled living experience just minutes from downtown Novato.  No expense was spared on the top-down, bottom-up remodel. The thoughtful design and high-quality finishes create timeless living spaces — both inside and out. 

Nearly every inch of this property was reimagined to bring the natural surroundings and create comfortable spaces and seamless indoor-outdoor flow to enjoy the mild climate of Northeast Novato.  The remodel included new windows and doors,  a new roof, a gourmet kitchen, spa-like bathrooms, and gorgeous wide-plank white oak flooring. The property features all electric appliances and systems. For added energy efficiency, the buyer could consider adding solar panels ot power the home. 

Upon entering the front door, you'll enter the "heart of the home," a sunlit great room with a private deck designed around a majestic heritage oak tree and and soaring vaulted ceiling. The main level’s open-concept design effortlessly connects the dramatic living room to the dining, dining area, kitchen and side family room. The chef’s kitchen is a showstopper, featuring oak cabinetry, quartz countertops, a marble backsplash, and top-of-the-line professional-style, stainless steel appliances. With two decks and direct access to the level lawn and outdoor patio and built-in BBQ area, this home is an entertainer's dream and invites gatherings under the stars.

Upstairs, the primary suite is a serene retreat with oversized windows, a private viewing deck, and a spa-inspired bathroom with walk-in shower and huge walk-in closet.  Two additional bedrooms are generously sized, offering abundant closet storage and sharing a beautifully appointed bathroom with a double vanity, tub, and shower.

The property’s long private driveway, turn-around, and spacious two-car garage provide effortless parking and accessibility. Here, you’ll experience the best of country living while being moments from Hwy 101, StoneTree Golf Club, Vintage Oaks Mall, and just a short drive to the world-renowned Napa and Sonoma Valleys or San Francisco.

Come experience this immaculate, turn-key residence where luxury meets nature in perfect harmony.

about this

Neighborhood

Located in the rolling hills and valleys of northern Marin County, Novato is the second-largest community in the county. Formerly known as a gateway to the Wine Country, Novato is increasingly being discovered as a destination in its own right. The reasons: great weather, a lively downtown, and homes that provide the best value in Marin. 
Upscale housing includes the luxury homes of Black Point, Club, Pt. Marin, Bel Marin Keys, Alameda Del Prado, and Indian Valley Road.
Big-box shopping is concentrated in the Vintage Oaks Shopping Center, which houses a Costco, a Target, and a Macy's Furniture, among other businesses. Downtown, a beautification program has brought new life to the businesses along Grant Avenue. The downtown area is alive with a Tuesday evening farmers market, outdoor movies, parades, and art and wine festivals.
In the '90s, military base Hamilton Field was converted to new housing and a business park. The former hangars now house cutting-edge biotech companies, digital development companies, the Marin Museum of Contemporary Art, and more than 40 art studios. Novato is also headquarters of large insurance company Fireman's Fund, as well as the Buck Institute, a research organization that focuses solely on aging.
