Discover an incredible find: a modern cedar ranch-style retreat, offering ultimate serenity and coming to the market for the first time. Beautifully situated on a magical 1.06-acre lot where majestic redwoods meet the ambience of this peaceful home setting. The 3 BR/2BA primary residence blends striking contemporary design and upgrades with warm cedar timber finishes. The expansive outdoor spaces are perfect for summer barbecues and ideal for kids and pets to play freely. Secluded and renovated, the detached 3 BR/2BA ADU provides a rare opportunity for multigenerational living, a guest house, or as an investment for potential rental income. Adjacent to the ADU is a detached structure that includes a turnkey bonus room with new flooring and finishes. Can be used as a home office, hobby workshop, or gym. A unique creekside bridge layout links the dual residences and offers the perfect balance of connection and privacy. This is more than a home; it is a strategic asset designed for flexibility, income, and long-term appreciation. Take advantage of an SB-9 lot split potential in an exclusive Novato location and increase the value of your home by using the highest and best use of the land.
