Set above Butterfield Dr, this home is private and light-filled, yet close to Fairfax and San Anselmo. Up the stairs, enjoy easy one-level living throughout. Hardwood floors flow throughout, while double-paned windows dressed in plantation shutters fill every room with natural light. The living room features a fireplace and an expansive window, while the dining room's beautiful built-in cabinetry adds a touch of character rarely found today. The kitchen offers an eat-in island, perfect for casual mornings or gathering while you cook. The primary suite opens directly onto a charming brick patio, the perfect spot for morning coffee against a backdrop of hillside greenery. The hillside behind offers privacy and opportunity, with the potential to terrace the slope for Mt. Tam views and additional garden space. Lovingly maintained by the same owner for over 30 years, this home carries a sense of care in every detail, with hiking and biking trails right out your door. Just one block from the highly regarded Brookside Elementary School, and with the best of Marin just beyond the front gate this is a rare opportunity to enjoy privacy, light, and location all in one.
