Some homes have names for a reason. Named Oak Knoll by its owners, this custom-built, light-filled 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home sits on a private .55-acre lot in North Novato's sought-after Rush Creek subdivision, cared for by the same stewards for 20 years used mostly on weekends, shoes-off upstairs and it shows. This home lives like new. A covered front porch framed by salvia and hummingbirds leads through a striking blue front door into a soaring double-height foyer with black granite tile inlay and a gold lantern pendant. From there, the formal living room opens with cathedral ceilings, crown molding, floor-to-ceiling windows, and an elegant granite fireplace with a white molded mantle. The adjacent dining room, bathed in natural light and hung with a chandelier, connects directly to the garden via new Anderson French doors. The kitchen is built for real life: warm cherry cabinetry, a teal Corian island with sink, GE Profile stainless appliances gas range, double ovens, microwave, dishwasher a walk-in pantry, and an Insta-Hot spigot. A breakfast nook with colorful glass pendants opens through French doors to the gardens. The family room features a handsome stone fireplace with wood mantle, ceiling fan, and its own pool access. A glass-doored room doubles as a home office or fifth bedroom, also with direct pool access. Upstairs, a landing with a window seat and built-in bookshelves leads to the primary suite genuinely oversized, with a sitting area overlooking ancient oak canopy, walk-in closet, and an ensuite with soaking tub, plantation shutters, arched walk-in shower, and double vanity. Two secondary bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath; a fourth has its own ensuite. Outside, a custom ornamental gate opens from the xeriscape front garden into a series of beautifully landscaped zones: a rocking chair patio, rose and lavender terraces, fig and lemon trees, a back deck with teak seating, and a fully renovated salt-filtered heated pool with electronic cover and pergola dining terrace all framed by two 300-year-old Blue and White Oaks. No structures are visible behind the property. Adjacent to Rush Creek Open Space Preserve's 500+ trail acres. Thirty minutes to the Golden Gate Bridge, 17 minutes to Sonoma wine country.
