Rush Creek, Novato (Marin County, California)

10-03-08
Kyle Frazier

Novato's Rush Creek neighborhood is undeniably one of Marin County, California's, nicest and coveted neighborhoods. There is a lot to like. These luxury homes are newer, built in the past 10 years, and sit on giant parcels (generally, at least 1/2 acre). Many of these homes have pools and elaborate landscaping. The streets are wide and there is no through traffic. Rush Creek offers privacy and prestige.

Rush Creek's proximity to HWY 101 and a recently renovated downtown Novato with lots of great shopping, a farmers market, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods (set to open in the next few months), and various restaurants, is also desirable. Adjacent to the neighborhood is Rush Creek Open Space Preserve.

Homes in Novato's Rush Creek have dipped in price during 2008. So far this year, we have seen 6 sales, ranging in price from $1.1 million for a 2,779 square foot home on Saddle Wood to $1.465 million for a home down the street with 4,196 square feet. The rest sold between $1.18 million and $1.275 million.

Kentfield's Kent Woodlands (One of Marin County, California's Most Exclusive Neighborhoods)

Kent Woodlands is an unincorporated residential community located in Marin County, California. Kent Woodlands consists of approximately 550 residential lots located at the base of Mt. Tamalpais in the Ross Valley.

The neighborhood, with a population of about 1,700, is characterized by its large, heavily wooded home sites. It derives its name from the family of influential Marin pioneer William Kent (1864-1928), a three-term Republican congressman and friend of John Muir who played a leading role in creating both Muir Woods National Monument and Mount Tamalpais State Park.

Gracious Living in Kentfield, California

Kentfield is blessed not only by good weather (when it is foggy in San Francisco and Southern Marin, it is sunny in Kent Woodlands), but also by low crime and some of the best schools in California, such as Bacich Elementary School. Hiking, biking, and fishing are right here--there is a string of lakes in the Tamalpais Watershed with virtually unlimited access.

Kent Woodlands is one of the Marin enclaves coveted by leaders of industry, actors, musicians, and sports figures.

Hamilton Marketplace RestaurantsEveryone has been waiting, hoping, praying that the new shopping center outside of Hamilton Field would include some good dining fare (I mean, nothing could beat Nave Lanes, but food is a good alternative). Today it was announced that Toast Cafe, La Boulange and Sonoma Latina Grill will be moving in.

We already knew about the mega-deluxe Safeway (with gas station), Peets Coffee & Tea, Wells Fargo, Starbucks, and Jamba Juice. Safeway is slated to open August 22nd.

As readers of my blogs know, Hamilton Landing and Hamilton Marketplace combine to make Southern Novato's Hamilton Field a truly special place. Everything you could need is right there, along with easy access to HWY 101, outdoors activities of all kinds, and a vibrant and friendly population. The neighborhood includes more than 1,000 homes, as well as renovated hangars housing studios, digital film operations, technical firms and other businesses, as well as the Marin Community Foundation.
