Only ten minutes drive to the Golden Gate Bridge. Be the first through the garden gate, walk down the inviting entryway flagstone steps, and make this hidden gem your home. This picturesque and private "Carmel Cottage" offers a versatile living plan with a main house, guest cottage, plus much more. Set on a large flat sunny lot with hiking trails a few steps from the front door, the 3 bedroom 2 bathroom main house surrounds a cozy brick and deck courtyard. The guest cottage has a kitchenette and bathroom with an attached deck. Finally there is a separate art/garden studio with a deck. Stroll the landscaped garden and pathways to find your own special spot to watch the sunset over Mount Tamalpais. Ready for you to move right in, the kitchen and bathrooms have been updated, a new roof has been installed and there are tile and hardwood floors throughout. A separate 2 car garage with a built in dark room completes this retreat which is close to shopping and transportation, yet "far from the madding crowd".
