A private 2+ bedroom tucked back from the street, wrapped in a gorgeous garden, plus an adorable cottage out back. Office, gym, art studio? You decide. Inside, it's pure charm: hardwood floors, elegant built-ins, and a classic Wedgewood stove. The inviting kitchen looks out to the yard from a wall of windows. It also opens to a fabulous backyard built for entertaining - big brick patio to relax and for dinner parties, fully fenced yard (your dog says thank you) and total privacy. The light-filled living and dining room feels airy and open, with generous windows and built-in shelves throughout. Bedrooms are bigger than you'd expect for a cottage, and there's a sweet third bedroom the owner used as an office. Two baths, including one beautifully remodeled. Downstairs, you'll find a roomy basement with tons of storage, a workbench, and laundry. And the location? Walk to nearby trailheads to access the Cascade Canyon Preserved and on to Mount Tamalpais State Park. It's a 15-minute stroll to downtown Fairfax to enjoy the movie theater, great restaurants, shops, coffee, bars, and more. It's that hip, cool, small-town energy that makes you want to linger.
