Location was great and allowed for an easy drive to Muir Woods, Napa Valley and San Francisco. We were an easy walk to the local grocery store and neighborhood coffeehouse. Neighborhood was nice. Parking was fairly easy in front of the home or a side street. Overall great value for a family of four.
My husband and I have raised our children in this wonderful town and love it so much. We enjoy the nature trails nearby for hiking and mountain biking and also love to go to the beach for surfing or paddle boarding. This "organic" town is one with a conscious. People in town generally are concerned with the environment as we are and enjoy walking or biking around. Also, we love shopping at the local organic store and enjoy music in town as well.
Our home is close to it all. It is on the boarder of Fairfax and San Anselmo--two sister towns that both have a lot going on. We can walk to restaurants and shops and enjoy the slower pace in town.
The large backyard provides a nice refuge and the apartment itself is a nice place to relax after working or playing in town. The convenient location makes it nice to commute to SF, or Stinson beach, because we are in the flats of town, close to it all.
