A truly perfect San Anselmo location! Easy walk, bike, hike and stroll to a dozen restaurants, grocery, bagels, coffee, parks + trails...and yet somehow, tucked away on a quiet hillside street with spectacular south facing Mt Tam views. This sun-kissed, 3+ bedroom, 2.5 bath almost fully detached townhome that looks and lives like a single family residence has been thoughtfully designed and exquisitely renovated over the past 7 years. It feels like home, yet so easy to lock up and travel the world. The kitchen features Miele appliances, custom DeWils cabinetry and Ceasarstone counters. Mt. Tam is your backdrop for the largest of 3 decks that spans living to dining rooms. The primary suite has California Closets and the 2nd of three private decks. The primary bath includes a steam shower, soaking tub, custom cabinetry and a double sink vanity with the perfect lighting. The modern glass staircase leads you to the living areas below that offer two bedrooms, a fully finished storage room big enough for a den, office, media or music room, an infrared Sunlighten sauna, a full bath with double sinks and radiant heat and the final patio of the home. Thoughtfully upgraded at every level both for form and function including newer roof, decks & windows. Award winning San Anselmo private and public schools close by along with easy access to all roads leading to 101 and beyond.
