Tucked at the end of a quiet court, 1422 Novato Court is the kind of turnkey home you don't find often. Recent improvements include a 200-amp electrical panel upgrade with EV charging capability, a new water line, and a remodeled garage with a new garage door. The open floor plan makes the most of every inch, with three bedrooms and two bathrooms — including an ensuite primary — conveniently located on one side of the home, and a living, dining, and kitchen great room on the other side. The living space flows seamlessly to the backyard, perfect for indoor/outdoor living and entertaining. The 10,000-square-foot yard is extremely private, with views of the ridgeline and Napa Valley–inspired landscaping. The garden features raised beds and native California plantings. It's less "backyard" and more private retreat. And then there's the neighborhood. The walkability here is hard to beat: ridge trails with views of the East Bay and Mt. Diablo, a short walk to The Market for coffee, and Larkey Park nearby. It's a centrally located pocket of town — 7 minutes to Downtown Walnut Creek, 2 minutes to Lunardi's and the Palos Verdes shopping center, 7 minutes to BART, and 4 minutes to the freeway. It's a rare combination of convenience and community. Homes like this, in a location like this, don't come around often.
