Amid oak trees and gardens blooming with fresh herbs, vegetables, and flowers, this light-filled sanctuary is a Marin hot-tubber's paradise.

Minutes away from the area's beloved trails and beaches, the five-bedroom home harnesses the location's outdoor beauty with a floor plan that flows easily from the inside out, as well as multiple decks for looking out at the views.

A grand foyer serves as the entrance to the main level where there are hardwood floors and art lighting throughout to please obsessive collectors. The large living room feels airy with a high, vaulted ceiling and skylight, while a new fireplace with a reclaimed wood mantle adds a bit of coziness.

Adjacent to the living room is a freshly remodeled kitchen with the same high ceiling and natural light pouring through the center. Teamed with a great room and formal dining area that open up to outdoor spaces for lounges, this is an ideal setting for entertaining.

Four bedrooms take up the bottom level where the master suite has bay windows, access to a private deck, and sun-soaked marble bathroom with heated floors, a soaking tub, extra-large shower, and double sink vanity. Rounding off the suite are dual walk-in closets—there's no sharing required here. Two other bedrooms on this floor share a bathroom, all of which have new floors, custom showers and cabinets, stone counters, and new fixtures. A third room with en suite bath, washer/dryer, and separate entrance provides privacy for guests, an au pair, or home office.

On the upper level, you'll find a guest suite with a full bath and second washer and dryer. The possibilities are endless.
