About This Home

As of May 2025

Traditional Neighborhood Thrives In Larkspur Remember the good old days when neighborhoods were closely knit communities? Neighbors felt like cherished extended family members. Kids played kickball in the street while parents congregated on a next door porch or lawn for great conversation and libations? Of course there was a BBQ after the game. By evening more neighbors arrived to join in the fun. Conversations were easy. Values were shared. And 281 Tulane Drive is part of this rare community. Here is a 4 bedroom and 3 bath home with an open floor plan that seamlessly flows to accommodate today's busy lifestyle. A separate living room and family room create ample space for family and friends. There are large windows and sliding glass doors that provide sunlit access to a patio and backyard. This family home is ready and waiting for you. Come join in and create your own neighborhood memories.
