Property Description
Welcome to Martens Gardens,'' a hidden horticultural paradise on the edge of San Rafael's sought-after Gerstle Park neighborhood. 56 Martens Boulevard may sound like a busy thoroughfare, yet it's anything but. This soft gray-painted mid-century modern home sits on a private, street-to-street lot filled with foliage and fruit trees. The home offers three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, plus a fully permitted studio apartment with its own laundry room - great for rental income, guests or a live-in nanny. The main house kitchen offers all-new stainless appliances and loads of wood cabinetry. The dining area opens to a relaxing patio and deck. The expansive living room features a wood-burning fireplace and a balcony for taking in the views of downtown and the hills. Upgrades include fresh paint, new bedroom carpets, designer lighting and newer electrical panels. The garage and two additional driveway spots are accessible from Ivy Lane - a quiet, country road at the base of the property. Your own private retreat, yet steps from Gerstle and Albert parks, the community center, bocce gardens, Pacifics baseball, Trinity preschool, the Panama Hotel (for humans) and the Tail Haven (for dogs). Don't wait - go directly to 56 Martens Boulevard, where you can own it all!
