A different perspective on Marin living. In Northeast Novato's peaceful Tranquility neighborhood, 116 Windwalker Way offers a compelling alternative to the expected. Sweeping views span the Bay to Mt. Tamalpais, open space borders the property, and a private Pinot Noir vineyard brings an uncommon touch of Wine Country to this expansive, elegant residence. The Tranquility neighborhood is one of Northeast Novato's best-kept secrets, with walking paths, scenic seating areas, and beautiful views that extend the outdoor experience beyond the property's spacious grounds. Designed for living well and entertaining with ease, the four-bedroom, 3.5-bath home features generous living spaces, high ceilings, and a natural connection between indoors and out. Broad south-facing views that extend to outdoor living provide a striking backdrop to everyday life, while the surrounding landscape lends a sense of openness and privacy rarely found so close to town. Then there's the vineyard. Professionally managed and producing up to 200 bottles of Pinot Noir annually, it offers more than a beautiful setting. It's an opportunity to enjoy a distinctive part of Wine Country living right at home, without leaving Marin. Thoughtful recent improvements include a new roof, owned solar with two storage batteries, a heat-pump electric water heater, and an EV charger. For those drawn to the space and character of Wine Country but seeking a closer connection to San Francisco, this property offers a distinctive alternative. Downtown Novato's shops and restaurants are nearby, with convenient access to Highways 37 and 101 for commuting. The setting delivers a welcome sense of retreat without sacrificing everyday convenience. At 116 Windwalker Way, vineyard living, expansive views, and the understated elegance of this Marin home come together in a way that's difficult to replicate.

About Northeast
Novato
Northeast Novato, located between Ignacio Boulevard and the Hamilton Wetlands, is a residential and outdoorsy Novato neighborhood with a creekside feel and open-space edges. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Ignacio Boulevard and Diablo Avenue corridor, where small plazas, taquerias, and everyday services set a steady, local rhythm. Housing leans toward late-20th-century ranch and contemporary builds, with cul-de-sacs and greenbelts shaping the street pattern. Rush Creek and nearby trails bring birdsong and bay breezes into daily routines. Community touchstones include Trek Winery, the Novato History Museum, and the Novato Theater Company for nights out that stay close to home.
