Tucked onto one of San Rafael's most beloved streets, this adorable home is full of character and even bigger potential. The setting does a lot of the work for you, an established, welcoming neighborhood with a genuine sense of community and easy access to everything that makes this pocket of San Rafael so sought-after. Inside, two comfortable bedrooms and a bathroom anchor a floor plan with great bones, plus a versatile room over the garage ready to flex as a home office, guest space, studio, or playroom. Out back, a generous, yard offers room to garden, entertain, or expand the home. A fixer with real upside. Bring your contractor, bring your vision, and make it your own.
