Beautiful Private Studio+ In Nature But Walkable

Your own pad in a beautiful, quiet setting across from a nice park, yet walking-distance to both downtown San Anselmo & Fairfax. French doors open to a large private deck. Views of a beautiful valley. This new addition is truly a full apartment. Not a basement - your unit is partly under us, but its main living space is not. Separate entrance (no direct access from our house) about 3.5 flights down from the road. This listing started Jan. 2022, but also see my spotless longer-term Airbnb record.
