About This Home
As of March 2026Just blocks to Grant Ave in downtown Novato, this 2BD/2BA cottage blends classic mid-century character with thoughtful recent updates in a location that truly delivers. The refreshed kitchen features all new appliances, counters, and flooring, creating a welcoming and functional center of the home. Both bathrooms have been refreshed. Fresh interior paint and original hardwood floors extend through the main living areas, anchored by a fireplace that adds warmth and charm. Natural light fills the home, creating an inviting atmosphere that feels comfortable and connected. The layout flows easily from living to dining, making everyday living and entertaining equally effortless. The outdoor spaces are a true highlight. A private front garden with established landscaping creates an inviting approach and expands the usable living area. The fully fenced backyard offers a level lawn and covered entertaining space ideal for gatherings or relaxed evenings at home. An attached 1 car garage offers flexibility for parking and storage. Just blocks from shops, dining, coffee, and community amenities along Grant Ave, this property combines updates, outdoor space, and downtown proximity in a way that is increasingly difficult to find. This is a compelling opportunity to own a house at this price point in Marin.
