Tucked away on a quiet court, backing to a lush greenbelt, this beautifully updated 4-bed, 2.5-bath home sits on nearly half an acre in Novato's most sought-after school zone. Roughly 2,688 sq ft of thoughtful interior design, a backyard that feels like a private retreat, and an owned 7.6kW solar system with EV charging - a rare combination, all in one place. Entering the home through French doors and into the foyer, the home opens up into a vaulted living room crowned by twin skylights and anchored by a custom fireplace, with a charming alcove sized perfectly for a piano. At the heart of the home, the remodeled kitchen pairs granite counters and stainless appliances with a statement hood, task lighting, and a spice nook tucked above the range. Storage is the quiet star: a large adjoining pantry with specialty slide-in cabinetry that makes everyday life effortless, and dedicated cookbook display shelving. The sunlit breakfast area offers island seating plus room for a table or workspace, and flows through interior French doors into the expansive family room addition, where oversized windows and a built-in bench beneath a picture window frame the greenery just outside. A slider opens directly to the backyard. A coat closet and updated powder room complete the main level. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms share an updated hall bath with a skylight and shower-over-tub, plus a linen closet. These secondary bedrooms offer ample closets, one with a built-in storage system. The primary suite is the calm center of the home: peaceful greenbelt views, built-in closet storage, and an updated primary bath with dressing area, dual vanities, and a spacious walk-in shower. Outside is where this home's privacy and serenity shines through. A large deck with pergola invites long evenings; a hot tub, terraced gardens, soothing water feature, and mature fruit trees turn the everyday into something special. Native California pollinator plantings welcome hummingbirds and butterflies year-round, and the lot's open-space backdrop delivers a sense of privacy that's increasingly rare in Marin. Central A/C, a newer furnace, an upgraded electrical panel, Nest thermostat, abundant storage (including large shed, expansive garage-adjacent space), and a recent AB-38 fire-safety clearance from Novato Fire round out the package. And then there's the address. This is Novato's most coveted school track - Pleasant Valley Elementary, Sinaloa Middle, and San Marin High.
