A rare combination in Novato: a fully updated single-level home on nearly a quarter acre, where the finishes are as impressive as the systems behind the walls. Inside, red oak flooring has been refinished to a warm glow and carries daylight deep into the main rooms. The remodeled kitchen pairs sleek counters with white cabinetry, stainless appliances including an LG 26 cu. ft. smart French-door refrigerator, a filtered drinking water faucet, recessed and under-cabinet lighting, and new hardware throughout. It opens to a combined living and dining room anchored by a gas fireplace with a custom Amish beam mantle, glass door, and glowing birch firelog set. Chandeliers on smart dimmers, an updated bath with frosted privacy glass, a Google Home thermostat, and a Flo by Moen whole-house leak detector round out the picture. Three bedrooms and two baths sit on one easy floor. The big-ticket work is done: new 125-amp Eaton electrical panel, asbestos ductwork removed and replaced with R8 runs, plenum and registers, main sewer line replaced with a two-way cleanout, roof and gutter repairs with gutter guards, chimney sealed, and a smart attic fan. Outside, French doors with a retractable screen open to a pergola with a canopy and solar market lights, a paver patio, and a six-person WiFi hot tub. Olive trees, roses, lavender, jasmine, grapevines, citrus, and a four-in-one fruit tree thrive on new drip irrigation, framed by pathway lighting and uplighting. The detached garage doubles as a finished workshop, with ample additional parking. The lot's scale still leaves clear room for an ADU, pool, or expanded garden, an increasingly uncommon advantage in this part of Marin County. Style, square footage, and future upside in one address.
