Behind a gated entry in a coveted neighborhood in the flats of Ross, this beautifully updated shingle-style home offers modern comfort, timeless appeal, and prime location. Set back from the tree-lined street, the west-facing residence is surrounded by lush gardens, a large level lawn, and majestic oaks, creating a serene retreat. The massive light-filled great room with exposed-beam cathedral ceiling, ridge views, and a striking fireplace is the heart of the home. A remodeled open kitchen and casual family room with a second fireplace forms a hub for daily life - opening to the patio and gardens. The flexible floor plan features 4 bedrooms--one an optional den with vaulted ceilings and built-in desk. The three full baths include a chic recent addition with a spa-like walk-in steam shower. An attached garage and ample off-street parking add convenience. With Ross Common and the acclaimed K-8 Ross School just two blocks away, and nearby hiking/biking trails plus the charming downtowns of Ross and San Anselmo, you might just leave the car at home! Rarely available quality in an impeccable location!
