Sweeping valley views, soaring interiors, flexible studio office space, and a fully renewed exterior in one of San Rafael's most sought-after neighborhoods. Beautifully renovated with approximately $350K in upgrades, this 4BD/3BA Sun Valley home pairs dramatic architecture with exceptional versatility, starting with a semi-attached studio office. With its own private entrance set apart from the main house, the open-layout studio office space includes a full ensuite bathroom with a shower, a kitchenette, and storage, ideal as a home workspace, guest retreat, or place for extended stays. Outside, Hardie Plank fiber-cement siding wraps the entire home for fire resistance and durability against rot, pests, and warping, while new Anlin dual-pane windows bring quiet, comfort, and efficiency. West-facing windows carry a solar coating that cuts glare and heat during summer sunsets, and new exterior lighting illuminates the outdoor areas. The front garden is arguably the best on the street: expansive, level, and laid with low-maintenance turf, ready for play and entertaining. Mature trees add secluded shade, long views stretch across the valley, and a private rear gate opens toward the flats of Sun Valley, with Sun Valley Elementary in close proximity. Inside, the living room is the centerpiece, with soaring ceilings that rise to the second story and floor-to-ceiling windows on either side of a central fireplace. Living, dining, and kitchen areas flow as one, while a mezzanine loft above overlooks the living room, perfect for movie nights or a media space. New smart-home-enabled Velux solar skylights add natural light, and glass doors open to an expansive Ipe deck with a built-in gas barbecue and sunsets over the hills. The kitchen features new quartz countertops, a tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, updated fixtures, and a generous pantry. The upstairs primary suite opens onto the loft and has a walk-in closet and a bath with a marble-topped vanity. On the main level, two bedrooms with generous closets share a full bath, near a dedicated laundry closet and extra storage. Hardwood floors, air conditioning, and a detached two-car garage with ample storage complete the home. Enjoy the benefits of Racquet Club Estates with easy access to Moody Court and the Sun Valley flats, moments from the San Rafael Racquet Club, Terra Linda-Sleepy Hollow Preserve trails, Andy's Market, and downtown San Rafael and San Anselmo. Sun Valley living at its best.
