Updated May 20

Tucked away on a wooded knoll, this 1939 cottage feels like a treehouse retreat, where dappled sunlight filters through the trees and floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outdoors in. Full of warmth, vintage charm, and modern comforts, this home is a love letter to a bygone era. Original hardwood floors, a brick fireplace, and timeless details create an inviting atmosphere. Sunlight pours into the living and dining areas, casting golden hues throughout the day. The vintage-inspired kitchen features new retro-style appliances, open shelving, and granite countertopsperfect for morning coffee or cozy dinners. The primary bathroom preserves its 1930s elegance with original tiles, a cast-iron soaking tub, and a stall shower. Beyond two main-floor bedrooms, a lower-level bonus space off the garage offers flexibility as an office, studio, or gym. Outside, a fully fenced yard feels like a secret garden, with mature trees, a grassy area, and even a charming chicken coop with resident hens. Though it feels like a retreat, this home is moments from College of Marin, Woodland Market, and scenic trails, with easy access to San Francisco. A rare blend of character, privacy, and conveniencethis is a home to be cherished.
