Exquisite and welcoming, this magazine-worthy 1934 Tudor was designed by British architect Harold Stoner to evoke the relaxed elegance of a traditional English manor. Privately set on 1.2 fully fenced acres (per tax records) in San Rafael's coveted Country Club neighborhood, the home is surrounded by mature gardens, expansive lawns, pastoral views, and enchanting outdoor living spaces. Beyond majestic entry gates, timeless craftsmanship unfolds throughout. A gracious entry hall and grand staircase lead to richly detailed interiors with wide-plank hardwood floors, custom millwork, and distinctive plasterwork. The paneled formal dining room overlooks the front terrace and gardens, while the romantic living room features a coffered ceiling, bay window, fireplace, and striking custom copper hood. Designed for gracious living and effortless entertaining, generous public spaces connect seamlessly to the outdoors. French doors, oversized windows, and Dutch doors open to brick patios, a teak deck, expansive lawns, and an ideal pool site. Both the kitchen and family room flow easily to the outdoors. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including a serene primary suite with a wood-burning fireplace, leaded-glass windows, jetted tub, built-in dresser, and generous closets. Two additional bedrooms share a renovated bath, while a separate en-suite bedroom above the family room offers added privacy. A one-bedroom guest suite with full bath, kitchenette, and private entrance provides exceptional flexibility. An architectural treasure, 60 Fairway Drive is a rare expression of timeless beauty, gracious living, and the enduring romance of an English country manor. This private country retreat is just moments from San Rafael's vibrant downtown, hiking and biking trails at China Camp, Marin Academy, Mark Day School, and an easy commute location.
