A treetop hideaway above downtown San Rafael. Tucked away as a corner unit on the top floor, this generously sized one bedroom at The Oaks wakes up to a redwood canopy outside the bedroom windows and holds onto light throughout the day through north, west and eastern exposures. With no one overhead and only one shared wall, the home enjoys a rare sense of peace and privacy. The leafy outlook carries into the living room, where an open living and dining space centers around a wood-burning fireplace and extends to a private balcony. The thoughtful remodel prioritized both material and quality. The eat-in kitchen is the centerpiece, with GE and Samsung stainless steel appliances, shaker-style solid maple cabinetry, Caesarstone quartz counters, Grohe fixtures, European tile and designer lighting. Sound-abating luxury vinyl flooring runs throughout. In-unit laundry, upgraded electrical, and central heating and A/C handle the practical side. Storage is unusually generous for a condo this size, with closets throughout plus a separate, secure storage closet in a dedicated room on the same floor. One deeded parking space in the locked, ground level garage is also included. The Oaks offers elevator access, guest parking, Amazon package lockers in the lobby, and a gated pool and clubhouse. And just beyond the trees, downtown San Rafael and some of Central Marin's favorites are within easy walking distance: coffee at Cafe del Soul, Puerto Rican at Sol Food, or a pint at Pond Farm Brewing. Trader Joe's and Whole Foods are nearby for everyday errands, while Highway 101, the San Rafael Transit Center and SMART make getting around the Bay Area easy.

A fully remodeled two-bedroom corner unit in Bahia de Rafael, with lawn on every side and the community pool just across the grass from the front door. Inside, the work is done. A brand new kitchen, counters and a garden window over the sink looking out to the patio, and a door that puts you outside in a step. New flooring and fresh paint carry through both levels. The main floor opens up more than the square footage suggests: living and dining run together beneath an open staircase, with windows on two sides. The patio is fenced, private and paved, big enough for a table and a grill and a avocado tree, and a gate at the back opens directly onto two covered carport spaces with a private storage locker beside them. Groceries to kitchen in under a minutes without crossing a lobby or a shared garage. Upstairs are two bedrooms, both bright, both with real closets, and a full bath with a tub. A half bath for guests, and a laundry hookup inside the unit. As a corner unit it takes light from three sides and looks out over lawn rather than a neighbor's window, and with the pool in front it is an easy place to keep an eye on children. Association dues are a low $425 a month. Walk to the Bay Trail, the supermarket and the bus. Five minutes to the 101 and the 580 Richmond Bridge approach, and twenty-five minutes to San Francisco. Sold in its present condition.
