179 Hilldale Drive is a home that invites you to enjoy the best of Marin living, inside and out. Mt. Tam views provide a beautiful backdrop, while the sunny, south-facing flat backyard offers an exceptional setting for entertaining, gardening, play, or simply relaxing outdoors. At the center of the home, the spacious great room feels warm and welcoming, with plenty of room for both everyday living and larger gatherings. The fireplace adds character and makes the space especially inviting on cooler evenings, while the outlook and connection to the outdoors give the room an open, relaxed feel. A generously-sized remodeled kitchen offers plenty of workspace and room to gather, with a comfortable kitchen nook that's ideal for morning coffee. Both bathrooms have also been updated, adding to the home's appeal and making it ready to enjoy. One of the property's real pleasures is the south-facing backyard. Flat, sunny and highly usable, it provides the kind of outdoor space that can become part of daily life. The fabulously maintained, lush gardens add beauty, color and a sense of serenity throughout the grounds. Garden, let the kids play, invite friends over for a long lunch, or enjoy dinner outside as the day winds down. A built-in outdoor kitchen makes outdoor entertaining particularly easy. Practical features are equally appealing. An attached garage provides direct access to the house, while a separate storage room beneath the home offers valuable additional space for the things you want nearby but out of the way. Set at the top of the hill in San Anselmo, 179 Hilldale Dr. enjoys a peaceful, private setting while remaining close to downtown, local schools, trails, shops and restaurants. Easy access to the commute makes the location especially convenient for getting around Marin or heading into San Francisco. With Mt. Tam views, abundant sunshine, a rare flat backyard and inviting spaces for gathering indoors and out, the property offers a wonderful place to call home.
