About 355 El Faisan Dr

Hi! Welcome to Your Future Home Dog-Friendly, Cozy, Scenic, and Full of Charm! This townhome is special to us, and we're looking for the right person to enjoy it as much as we have. It is ideal for singles, couples, small families, and dog lovers (1 dog, up to ~ 50 lbs). We'd love to find someone who will appreciate this home's warmth and charm as much as we do. We're looking for someone reliable who can rent it long-term. Nestled up a hill in a safe, gated community in San Rafael, this townhome is a peaceful retreat with sweeping mountain views, high vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams, and a cozy brick fireplace that made us fall in love with it from day one. This gated community is in a great location close enough to the city life of downtown San Francisco but far enough away to enjoy more space, quiet, and greenery. Getting into the city is easy, and crossing the Golden Gate Bridge never gets old! If you ever need a change of pace, you're also just 20 minutes from Famous Sausilito, 30 minutes from downtown Sonoma, and 45 minutes from Napa Valley's world-famous vineyards. Inside this cozy home, you'll find two spacious bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and private patio access. These bedrooms are perfect for unwinding at the end of the day. The open-concept kitchen and living area are just as great for cozy nights in as they are for entertaining. We invite you to take a look at the photos and read through the details, unique features, new upgrades, and amenities, including the FAQ section. Thanks!
