20 Fairhills Drive is a remarkable property located in one of the most coveted neighborhoods in all of San Rafael.  This 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom Cape Cod style home is sited on a flat, sunny lot, just under 16,000 square feet, with mature landscaping and a park-like setting.  There is a stunning, recently built 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom attached ADU with its own private hardscaped patio and yard with barbecue area and gas fire table.

Through an abundance of windows, the interior is flooded with warm natural light.  Indoor-outdoor living at its finest.  The kitchen has been updated with a new quartz countertop, which frames the back yard patio and lawn.  The butcher block island has counter seating and a prep area.  There is a lovely bay window with table and chairs for casual dining.  Off the kitchen is a formal dining room with French doors leading to an outside patio.  Opposite the dining room is a family room with a beautiful rustic fireplace.  French doors lead to separate outside patio.  Adjacent to the family room is a guest bedroom and full bathroom, oozing with charm.

The luxurious living room has a massive floor-to-ceiling bay window, hardwood floors, a stone fireplace, and a vaulted ceiling.  Down the hallway, there are three bedrooms, one bathroom with bedroom and hallway access, and one ensuite.  The ensuite bedroom has access to a private patio via a large sliding glass door.

Upstairs, a private primary bedroom with a sitting area, a vaulted ceiling, and French doors open to a balcony with views of the back yard.  A large custom bathroom with a jetted tub, and a walk-in closet round out this suite.

Outside is a large, flat, stately front yard with lawn, roses, newly planted boxwood hedge, and a majestic flowering tulip tree.  The flat landscaped backyard has a bounty of flowers, rows of hedges, and a magnificent apple tree.  Sunny, private, and fabulous for entertaining.  A path winds to a tropical, fenced wading pool, complete with changing room, half bath, and pool deck.

Recent updates include new interior paint, refinished hardwood floors, new carpeting, and light fixtures.  The roof, solar, and two Tesla Powerwall’s were added in the last two years.  New AC was added in the last few years.

20 Fairhills is within close proximity to downtown San Rafael, shopping, restaurants, public transportation, and Sun Valley School.  This is a legacy-type home, not to be missed.
