Cherished by one family for over 30 years, 254 Mountain View is an inviting, one level home on a mostly level lot in the historic Dominican neighborhood. Refreshed and updated for sophisticated modern living, the home seamlessly pairs timeless charm with gorgeous new wide-plank oak floors and updated designer fixtures. The home features a spacious living room which adjoins a dining room that opens through sliding glass doors to a beautiful deck with fire pit, adjacent level lawn area, and rose gardens. The hillside behind adds a wall of greenery and makes the property feel lush and private. The kitchen and family room have skylights and a wall of windows that open to the deck and backyard, and this space has been refreshed with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, & new hardware. There are 3BR and 2BA in the main house and the 4th BR/BA are just off the garage and laundry spaces. All in a great location with a near perfect microclimate on this sidewalk-lined street with mature trees. Close to the neighborhood's historic grand estates, Dominican University, downtown San Rafael, highway 101, and commuter transportation hubs.
