About This Home

As of March 2026

Nestled in the tranquil hills of Marin Country Club Estates, 16 Burning Tree seamlessly blends mid-century architecture with contemporary California living. Being offered for sale for the first time in 47 years, this 2,488 sq ft single-level residence offers 3 beds & 2.5 baths, designed to capture breathtaking, unobstructed views of the golf course, Mt. Burdell, and surrounding hills through expansive floor-to-ceiling windows & vaulted open-beam ceilings. The great room exudes architectural character with its dramatic stone fireplace, rich wood finishes, built-in bookshelf, and exposed beams, creating a warm yet airy ambiance. Natural light floods through skylights and custom windows, enhancing the connection to nature. The primary suite boasts high ceilings, a walk-in closet, and direct access to the wrap around redwood deck, perfect for savoring morning coffee or evening sunsets. Two additional bedrooms offer outdoor access, one leading to a private side deck with a built-in hot tub overlooking the valley. An unfinished 450 +/- sq. ft. rec room with sliding doors opens onto a generous deck, ready for your personal vision. A workshop with views adds versatility. This is a rare opportunity to own a peaceful, private hillside retreat in one of Novato's most coveted communities.
