    With 1,954 sq.ft. of living space, an attached 2-car garage, and a private deck, this Pacheco Valle townhome lives like a single-family home in a serene Marin setting. Designed with flexibility in mind, the upper level offers two primary suites each with a walk-in closet while the main-level family room easily doubles as a third bedroom, guest retreat, or media space. The living room, with fireplace and verdant views, flows into the formal dining room, creating an open floor plan and ideal setting for gatherings. A light-filled kitchen and breakfast room, enhanced by picture windows and skylights, open to the deck and terraced gardens, blending indoor comfort with outdoor enjoyment. Other features include newer electrical main & sub-panels, a washer/dryer closet, and a spacious side-by-side 2-car garage with an oversized storage room behind. Community amenities include a resort-style pool & spa, and tennis courts, plus miles of hiking and biking trails. Conveniently located near Hwy 101, public transit, and the SMART train for an easy southern Novato commute. Move right in, reimagine and remodel to make it your own.
