About This Home

As of May 2025

Charming retreat in a beautiful, peaceful setting. Away from it all, yet just a few minutes to the artistic, lively center of Fairfax. Nestled on a sunny 18,450 sqft lot near spectacular open space lands. In Marin, smaller homes on good lots like this are a real find! Explore the possibilities: Multi-family 2 income units? Live in one/rent one? Make it 1 larger home with a new ADU? Check w/County (this is not in city limits). The lovely, light-filled upper floor has 2 bdms/1 bath, high ceilings, nice views w/a peek of the waters of San Pablo Bay, and a separate Workshop/Office in the back yard. The Lower Unit is a nicely upgraded 1bdm/1bath. Both have easy access, no steps to entry. Right out the front door is access to a unique hikers' paradise: thousands of acres of protected Open Space w/reservoirs, streams, waterfalls, redwoods, birds, other wildlife. Amazing biking (the Bo-Fax Rd to Bolinas, world-class Mtn Bike trails) and The Meadow Club golf course also nearby. Fairfax itself is a true Marin gem: gourmet restaurants, great cafes, intriguing boutiques, galleries, music venues, a 3-screen movie theater, a book store, a hardware store, The Good Earth grocery, a weekly farmers market & even a monthly storytelling event. Great Schools! Don't miss this special place.
