Remarks

This is the best priced one bedroom condo in all of Marin County! Refreshed from top to bottom and ready for move-in, this top-floor 1BD/1BA condo at Center Place offers a clean slate for its next owner. New carpet and flooring, fresh paint and a new refrigerator set the tone, and the full bathroom has an updated vanity mirror, faucet and fixtures. The open living area leads out to a private balcony with treetop views, a quiet spot to unwind at the end of the day. Practical touches include a large storage closet and one assigned parking space. The building has an elevator, shared laundry right across the hall, green landscaping and a sparkling community pool. Whether you're buying your first place or downsizing, this is easy, low-maintenance living. As a bonus, you're in the heart of downtown Novato. Grab fresh salsa from local favorite Tommy's Salsa, pick up a slice at Mountain Mike's, or settle in for Thai at Chao Praya, all close by. Pini Hardware, the post office, Safeway, Starbucks and Habit Burger are just a couple of blocks away, so quick errands are easy whenever you need them.
