Lovingly cherished by the same family since its construction in 1940. Now, it's ready for new memories and new beginnings...maybe yours. This inviting vintage property offers the warmth and character buyers often dream of, with premium white oak floors, abundant natural light, and a layout that's both practical and flexible. A country-style kitchen invites people to gather around the table with plenty of space. The dining and living rooms have gorgeous floors, wrap-around windows and a fireplace for cozy gathering and a door leads to a front veranda. The back patio is party-central with a fireplace and room for play and a terraced yard with full sun goes way up with level spaces. Grandpa had fruit trees and veggie gardens in the day. Now you can develop your dream setting - maybe a vineyard or play structure. A 2-car garage has a large area for a workbench, and a spacious laundry area with sink. Gerstle Park is known for its community vibe, walkability, and convenience to both downtown San Rafael and over Wolfe Grade to Ross Valley. Welcome Home!
