Gerstle Park Sanctuary- Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in one of Gerstle Park's most sought-after locations, this private sanctuary offers a rare combination of serenity and space. Surrounded by larger homes and generously sized parcels, the setting feels both peaceful and exclusive. Inside, the home features a bright great room with a peek of the Bay, opening onto two spacious decks ideal for entertaining or relaxing in nature. Recently refinished hardwood floors and fresh interior paint enhance the home's warmth and charm. While the kitchen and bathrooms offer an opportunity for modern updates, they are fully functional and provide a solid foundation to create your dream home. The upstairs bath has a large custom built sauna and deep soaking tub. Often described as Mill Valley in San Rafael, the property boasts a lush, garden-like setting with an abundance of fruit trees, creating a true outdoor oasis. Two fireplace inserts one on each level add both ambiance and comfort throughout the home. Quiet, serene, and full of potential, this unique property is a rare find in a highly desirable neighborhood. Easy freeway access make it a commuters delight.
