About This Home

As of August 2020

Welcome to this reimagined 1930's Sycamore Park bungalow that was reconstructed in 2016 and is brimming with character and soul. The preserved period details mixed with modern finishes create the perfect balance of old world charm and contemporary living. The great room is the hub of this house with a modern kitchen, charming dining nook with built-in bench and a formal dining area for special occasions. The adjacent family room flows seamlessly to the huge backyard and lawn. Also on the main floor is the 4th bedroom/office, laundry room, and a full bath/powder room. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms including the master suite which has a luxurious, spa-like bathroom with steam shower, clawfoot tub, and large walk-in closet. Part of the garage has been finished as a home gym, office, or kids playroom. With approved plans for a 1 bed/1bath ADU, this turn-key home can be an ideal family compound with enough room for a pool to take advantage of the outdoor Marin lifestyle.
