THE HOME YOU WANT TO COME HOME TO
Tucked at the end of a quiet cul de sac, this beautifully updated Fairfax home offers the warmth of a real neighborhood, the convenience of close-in living, and the natural beauty of Marin right at your door.
There is a particular kind of ease that comes with a home like this. Light pours through oversized windows, bouncing off refinished hardwood floors beneath soaring high ceilings and three brand-new HVAC mini split systems (6 mini splits in total). The southeastern exposure means morning sun fills the living spaces, and the deck –accessed from the main living area as well as the primary suite–invites you to linger with coffee, watch the light shift across Mount Tam, or simply take in the steeple of St. Rita's rising above the treetops.
The lot is generous, the yard is level, and the setting at the end of a cul de sac means the only cars passing are the exception, not the rule. The two-car attached garage and dedicated laundry room make everyday life genuinely easy. This is not a compromise home. It is a considered one.

Neighborhood
When you purchase a home in Fairfax, you're also purchasing history. There's still a whiff of 1960s counterculture in Fairfax, where the Jefferson Airplane once played softball with the Grateful Dead. This town of 7,500 residents just north of Mount Tamalpais is 30 minutes from San Francisco, less than 20 miles from Point Reyes, and is known as one of Marin County’s more affordable communities.
The heart of Fairfax is Broadway Boulevard, which parallels Sir Frances Drake Boulevard, the main traffic corridor heading west. Broadway is a perfect walking street where locals shop at Fairfax Coffee Roastery, purchase fresh local produce at the farmers market, and duck into Fairfax Variety for toys, tchotchkes, and candy. If Fairfax feels like it is living in a time warp, that's just fine with its residents, who have passed ordinances prohibiting chain stores, plastic bags, and Styrofoam takeout-food packaging. The art-deco movie theater and 19 Broadway Bar & Night Club are at the center of the action when it comes to nightlife in Fairfax.
