About This Home

As of April 2026

Vintage charm in downtown Novato, newly refreshed for modern living! This 1940s single-story Ranch home features 3BD + office + 2.5BA with a flexible floor plan and possible ADU expansion potential. Just a block from local favorites like Marvin's Breakfast Club and Rustic Bakery, 1012 Second Street offers a lifestyle that's effortlessly accessible. Morning coffee, weekend brunch, boutique shopping, and community events are all right outside your door, no car required. Fresh landscaping and inviting curb appeal draw you in, while inside you'll find new LVP flooring in the main living areas, new carpet in the bedrooms, and a brightened kitchen with newly painted cabinets, new counters, tile backsplash, and recessed LED lighting. A new dual-zone HVAC system, Milgard dual-paned windows, and added attic insulation ensure year-round comfort. The flexible rear bedroom and bath layout offers privacy ideal for guests or generational living. A large two-car garage with workshop space, half bath, generous overhead storage, EV outlet, RV/boat parking, and rough-ins for a potential future ADU provide rare versatility this close to downtown. The back yard is spacious and ready for your personal stamp. This property has been lovingly owned by the same family since it was built, and it's now ready for the next chapter!
