Welcome to 255 Knight Drive, a thoughtfully updated single-story ranch in San Rafaels highly sought-after Glenwood neighborhood. The layout works the way you live, with the kitchen at the center: the family room opens off one side and the dining room off the other, so meals, conversation and everyday life flow easily together.

The three bedrooms sit privately down the hall. The primary suite has its own ensuite bath and a walk-in closet. A 2012 kitchen remodel and bathroom renovations completed in 2023 and 2026 mean the major updates are already done. Outside, a well-landscaped front yard gives the home great curb appeal, and the private backyard retreat is ready for coffee in the morning, dinner outdoors and quiet evenings in Marins mild bayside climate. A clean, well-kept two-car garage with an EV charging outlet completes this truly turnkey home. Glenwood offers a quiet residential setting with bayside character, and its minutes from Glenwood Elementary, China Camp State Park, McNears Beach, Peacock Gap Golf Club and the shoreline paths along Point San Pedro Road.
