Lovely, Sunny And Private Cottage in Central Marin. KITCHEN & BATH RENO IN SEPT!

UPDATE: In September of 2024 we will do a full renovation of the kitchen and bathroom of this cottage! The new kitchen will feature new cabinetry, fixtures, appliances and all the rest. The new bathroom will double in size, with a full-size tub/ shower, a six-foot double vanity, stacked washer/ dryer etc. A huge upgrade!

This cottage is one-of-a-kind. It's lovely, large, quiet and in an incredible location, central to everything. A perfect base for exploring the Bay Area! San Francisco is 30 min to the south, wine country is 45 min to the north, and all of Marin surrounds you. The cottage is 20 minutes from Golden Gate Bridge, 5 minutes from highway 101 and easy walking distance to brunch or dinner in sweet downtown Kentfield. But here's the kicker: it feels totally removed, a secret oasis. It's on a 2-acre gated property covered with woodlands, redwood groves and gardens, and feels totally private. It's a wonderful place to come home to after a busy day.

The cottage is sweet, spacious and serene. Pre-renovation, it is updated in some features (floors, carpeting, window treatments, furnishings) and not in others (kitchen, bathroom). The living room has a very comfortable queen sleeper sofa. The dining area seats 4. The large flat screen TV comes with Roku. Off the living room is a large redwood deck with a sitting area, very private and lovely. You'll see deer on the lawn outside the front door and hummingbirds off the deck almost every day. A new heating/ AC system will keep you comfortable in any season - though Marin is so mild that you'll mostly just throw the deck doors open and enjoy the fresh air!

The kitchen and bath (pre-renovation) are older but functional and clean. The kitchen is equipped with all the basics: dishwasher, new fridge, microwave, toaster, pantry essentials. The bathroom has a small shower, no bath.

The bedroom boasts a beautiful queen-sized solid acacia bed with premium Sealy Posturepedic mattress and high-quality linens. It has large windows and lovely light.

Generally, this cottage (pre-renovation) is large and cute, updated in some areas and a little dated and worn in others, but clean and comfortable and on a gorgeous property in an incredible location. As of October it will be hugely improved, a fresh and upscale cottage in a garden wonderland.

The owners live on the property, in the main house. We are usually available to help with anything you need, within max 2 hours.
