A beautiful four bedroom home with pool just north of San Francisco, California

We live in a very comfortable home in the town of San Rafael (just blocks from the San Francisco Bay) 29 kilometers north of San Francisco across the Golden Gate bridge. There is a park with tennis courts and play area for children just 5 minutes walking from our home, and you can access hiking trails from there that take you up into the hills of Marin County where you can see the three bridges that connect the San Francisco Bay. Our home has three bedrooms with "queen beds" and one study with a single bed. There are two full bathrooms and one guest half bathroom, meaning with no shower. As you see from the photos, our kitchen is open to the family room, which lends itself well for wonderful informal gatherings around cooking. The neighborhood is quiet and very friendly! Neighbors generally gather in the park with their dogs and a bottle of wine on Friday evenings to relax from the week. We know our neighbors well (which is sometimes unusual these days!) In the spring, summer, and fall we enjoy sitting by the pool for a meal in the evenings. Our weather in San Rafael can be described as "Mediterranean" --the summers are warm and dry.
