Rush Creek
Set on one of the most coveted corner parcels in Rush Creek, this exceptional four-bedroom, three-bath residence occupies a level one-acre lot and evokes the timeless romance of an English garden paired with the effortless charm of summers on Cape Cod. The interior has been thoughtfully and impeccably renovated, revealing soaring ceilings, an abundance of natural light through expansive windows, and a refined, understated elegance that balances designer sophistication with the warmth of home.
On the main level, a gracious formal living room with fireplace is bathed in light, creating an inviting space for both intimate gatherings and quiet repose. This level also features a generously proportioned bedroom, complete with a custom built-in bed and an entire wall of integrated desk and cabinetry, offering both function and style. A beautifully appointed full bath with a step-in shower is conveniently situated nearby. Ascending the stunning hardwood staircase, one arrives at a formal dining room overlooking the lush gardens below—an exquisite setting for entertaining that flows seamlessly into the living spaces. The adjacent kitchen is both elegant and highly functional, showcasing floor-to-ceiling storage, a central island, a beverage refrigerator, and a casual dining area. It opens effortlessly to the inviting family room, where a second fireplace and dramatic ceilings create a sense of volume and comfort. From here, glass doors lead directly to the remarkable backyard.
This level also hosts three additional bedrooms, including a serene primary suite that overlooks the gardens through a wall of windows. The en-suite bath is luxuriously appointed with a soaking tub, spacious step-in shower, and a generous walk-in closet.
Outdoors, the level acre unfolds into expansive lawns and curated, mature landscaping, awash in seasonal color and offering abundant space for recreation, relaxation, or future enhancements such as a pool or accessory dwelling unit (subject to city approval). A long, private driveway provides a gracious setback from the street along with ample guest parking, while the three-car garage—currently featuring a finished third bay used as a fitness studio and artist’s retreat—adds further versatility.
Ideally located adjacent to the scenic Rush Creek Preserve, with miles of trails for hiking and biking, this home also enjoys close proximity to the charm of downtown Novato, as well as convenient access to Highway 101 and 37—placing San Francisco, Santa Rosa, and the renowned Sonoma Wine Country within easy reach.
This is a rare offering that embodies the very best of Marin living—refined, relaxed, and effortlessly elegant. Welcome home.
