Light, Valley Views, and a Short Walk to Marin Country Club
On a private, raised lot in Marin Country Club Estates, 17 Carnoustie Drive is a two-story home from 1970 that has been carefully updated. The first thing you notice is the light. The second is the open view across the valley from the main living spaces.
The kitchen was redone in 2026 with new countertops, backsplash, and appliances, and pendant lights over the breakfast bar. It opens to a family room built around a fireplace. A bedroom on the main level, finished the same year with a desk alcove and a newly renovated full bath, works just as well for guests as for a home office. Upstairs, the primary suite looks out over the valley. It has a remodeled bath with two sinks and a step-in shower, and a large walk-in closet.
Outside, a fenced front yard with mature privacy trees and a covered porch leads to a side garden of citrus and fruit trees, then to a patio out back. The big projects are already done: a newer roof, windows, exterior paint, furnace, and air conditioning, plus a new sewer lateral.
The Fairway Drive entrance to Marin Country Club is a short walk away, or a one-minute ride by golf cart. We were glad to help our buyers find their place on this street.
Living the Novato Lifestyle
There's something particular about life in Novato, with wide open hills, real yards, and a pace that runs sunnier and slower than the fog belt further south. Mornings start with a hike at Mount Burdell Preserve or a coffee run to Dr. Insomniac's. Weekends mean a stop at Creekside Bakery before the salmon toast sells out, browsing the boutiques on Grant Avenue, and a Friday night table at Grazie or Las Guitarras. Nugget Market handles the weekly grocery run, live music fills HopMonk Tavern most weekends, and Sonoma wine country is just 30 minutes up the road when you need it. Highway 101 is minutes away, and San Francisco isn't far behind.
