A special place to call home!
Welcome to Marinwood Estates! Located at the quiet, upper end of Las Gallinas Avenue, and on the market for the first time in more than 20 years, this 3 bedroom/2 bathroom home will absolutely steal your heart. From the moment you pull in to the long private driveway, lined with Coastal Redwood trees on one side and a thriving fruit and vegetable garden on the other, you will know you are entering a very special property. Double doors welcome you into the open floorplan with immediate views to the backyard & pool area. Hardwood floors and abundant natural sunlight throughout give this home a warm and natural feeling. The large Living Room with fireplace and full wall of windows is directly connected to the back patios and pool. Excellent flow for indoor/outdoor entertaining! Enjoy beautiful views from all 3 bedrooms, as the home is on a slightly elevated lot and surrounded by the mesmerizing Marin hills and canyons. The updated kitchen, with new quartz countertops, SS appliances, and new cabinet doors is perfectly located adjacent to the dining area, and flooded with natural sunlight. The large Primary Suite looks out to the pool area, and offers a walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom with new tile flooring and large walk-in shower. Two additional large bedrooms, another full bathroom, and a two-car garage complete this move-in ready home. Fantastic location, nearby to Miller Creek Schools, the Marinwood Community Center Pool and Park, and the beloved local Marinwood Market!

A WONDERFUL COMMUNITY
Marinwood is known for being a friendly community, with many special events such as Summer Concerts in the Park, The Annual October Brewfest, Art Exhibits, Easter Egg Hunt, Santa Visits throughout the town on a fire truck, and many more! With a large variety of classes plus a playpark and huge grassy areas, tennis courts and a pool with waterslides, the Marinwood Community Center is a favorite spot for neighbors of all ages! Not to mention our local Marinwood Market, which offers a full-service deli and a butcher, as well as occasional pop-up events like fresh BBQing or pizza shops in the parking lot area!
It is a truly special place to call home, with many second and even third generations of Marinwoodites returning to "The 'Wood" to live and raise families.
MARINWOOD HISTORY
The Marinwood area is part of an original Spanish Land Grant to Don Timateo Murphy. It was operated as a ranch, and then as a dairy farm, until it was sold for development in 1954.
In 1955, the first homes were built near Highway 101, then a four-lane undivided highway. At that time the boundaries of San Rafael were four miles to the south, at the top of Puerto Suello Hill, and the boundaries of Novato were six miles to the north. To provide improved local services, particularly fire protection, and to be able to secure bond financing, the Community Services District was formed in 1960. With bond funding, the CSD was able to purchase the land for Marinwood Park and to develop the firehouse, park, community center and pool.
In 1972, the community again voted to tax itself for the purchase of the ridge of open space bordering the community in order to preserve it from development. The original purchase of 321 acres has grown to 812 acres as additional parcels were purchased and developers were required to set aside land as open space. The Marinwood Community Services District Fire Department, the Community Center and Pool recreation programs, the parks, and the community open space are all central to the identity of the Community of Marinwood.
