    What's special

    Flexible living spacesMultiple view-facing decks
    Set on an elevated Novato lot with expansive outlooks, 1218 Highland Dr offers generous scale, flexible living spaces, and multiple view-facing decks. The home features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and 2,671 square feet across a two-story floor plan designed to take advantage of the setting. The upper level is the heart of the home, with an open-concept layout connecting the living room, family room, dining area, kitchen, and half bath. A large deck off the living and dining area extends the home outdoors and creates an impressive place to relax, gather, or take in the view. The lower level includes all three bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with its own deck and an adjoining office that works well as a workspace, nursery, sitting area, or private retreat. One of the secondary bedrooms also opens to a deck, adding another quiet connection to the outdoors. Set on a 12,806 square foot lot, the home offers size, views, and flexibility. While much of the lot is downslope and less practical for everyday use, the multiple decks and view-oriented layout create a strong indoor/outdoor feel. The bathrooms are dated and offer room for future improvement, giving the next owner an opportunity to personalize a well-located home with excellent space and outlooks.
