Step inside to find a bright, open living area where tile flooring flows into a stylish kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, a gas range, glass-front cabinetry, and a skylight that fills the space with natural light. A slider off the main level opens to a terraced backyard, where a wooden pergola shades a paver patiothe perfect spot for morning coffee or evening conversation surrounded by stone retaining walls, mature trees, and seasonal blooms. The bedroom offers a cozy electric fireplace for added warmth and ambiance, while the full bathroom features a tub-shower combo and classic tile finishes. Rich hardwood floors run throughout much of the home, adding timeless appeal, and plantation shutters bring both privacy and charm to several rooms. Downstairs, a spacious attached one-car garage provides parking and extra storage, along with in-garage laundry hookups for added convenience. The home's cedar shingle exterior and covered entry porch give it standout curb appeal on the street, while its hillside setting offers a peaceful, tree-lined backdrop just minutes from downtown San Anselmo's shops, restaurants, and scenic trails.
