With only three bedrooms across over 3,700 square feet, the layout may be restrictive for larger families or buyers requiring more dedicated sleeping quarters despite the high bathroom count.
The expansive 2.8-acre lot is primarily hillside terrain, which can lead to higher landscaping maintenance costs and limited usable flat land for traditional outdoor activities or gardening.
Set above Novato with sweeping vistas of the Petaluma River, San Pablo Bay, and Sonoma hillsides, this extensively upgraded home brings together bold architecture, refined finishes, and smart, energy forward improvements in a setting that feels truly special. Vaulted wood ceilings and oversized windows pull the horizon into the room, filling the interiors with natural light and a constant sense of space and calm. The main level is designed for effortless flow. A welcoming foyer opens to spacious living and dining areas, a view framed family room, and a showpiece kitchen finished with Bianco Carrara marble floors and counters, radiant heat, a marble topped island, pot filler, and a thoughtfully built out butler's pantry. Culinary highlights include Sub Zero 48" Pro refrigeration, Miele dishwashing, and a suite of Hestan appliances, including a Hestan 48" dual fuel range with four gas burners and a 24" griddle, plus a 6' Galley Dresser stainless sink with dedicated prep stations and an impressive baking area featuring a Haussler electric pizza and baking oven. Multiple wine refrigerators and mini beverage fridges add the kind of everyday ease that quietly elevates the routine. Beyond the glass, expansive view decks extend the living space and make the outlook the star, creating a natural rhythm to the day. Slow mornings with coffee and sky, golden hour dinners as the light shifts across the water, and evenings that feel a little more peaceful simply because of where you are. A dedicated grill area and seamless indoor outdoor connection make it easy to move from kitchen to deck without missing a moment. A generous laundry room, guest bedroom with ensuite bath, and oversized garage complete the level with comfort and practicality. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a private escape, offering a sitting area, custom California Closet system, and a luxe marble bath with heated towel racks, Toto wall hung toilet, rain showers, and smart lighting.
