If there was ever a house that perfectly represented what living in the town it's in was like, it would be this over 100-year-old craftsman house in Larkspur. Not only is it in Larkspur's best neighborhood, Baltimore Park, the house has been tastefully modernized without losing the craftsman charm that harmonizes so well with the surrounding homes and historic downtown just a few blocks away. If I lived here, I'd walk a block over to get a cup of coffee at Equator. I'd lounge on my roof deck taking in the sunrise before moving downstairs to make breakfast in my beautifully updated kitchen with the cutest little dining nook overlooking the backyard. The living space gets so much light —so much natural light, and the sliding glass doors leading to the yard outfitted with a heated patio area add a nice touch of elegance to the home. And there's even a guest house for your in-laws so they don't have to actually stay with you in the same house. The 4-bed, 3-bath, 2,142-square-foot home recently hit the market for $3,395,000, and I might have to buy this one for myself. Follow me for more Bay Area real estate
