About This Home
3 attractive UNITS! Monthly rent in range of $8075+ in high-demand location, great schools, close to downtown and transit. Delightful, light-filled and charming cottage with 2 bdrms and 1 bath, wood floors, pitched ceiling, spacious living areas and multiple outdoor areas plus a one-car garage.

Both are bright and welcoming, and can continue to be used for appealing rentals or later as a home offices, gym, guest suite, for young adults or extended family. Imagine this as your own residence in its entirety or as a family compound. Currently the smaller units are rented to quiet tenants. The yard is filled with flowering plants and trees, with a meandering path from the top of the lot to the bottom. There is an area for a hammock in the shade near the fig tree, plenty of small patios, areas for gardening and a deck for one of the studios. There is a large basement under the main cottage with plentiful storage and a washer/dryer, currently shared by the residents. This is rare opportunity to own a desireable income property or a move-in ready cottage with 2 tenants in place, near groceries, shops, dining, and coffee in downtown San Anselmo and Fairfax, making it car-independent for many.
