About this home
Single Family · Built 1999
Turn-key home in one of the best locations in one of the best neighborhoods in Hamilton Field, Novato. Tucked away at the rear of South Gate, 170 Emerson Avenue is an impressive, Mediterranean style home that exudes warmth combined with all of the modern conveniences. In addition, the home is in a very low traffic area (kids can ride bicycles to the park, etc.) and the entire surrounding neighborhood is in the flats. Finally, this home offers tranquility and water views from the primary suite as it backs up to the Bay Trail and wetlands beyond. This is truly a rare and special combination.
