Welcome to 60 Hawthorne, located in one of San Anselmo’s most desirable residential neighborhoods. Originally built in 1939, but extensively remodeled in 2015, this charming home has been lovingly restored and cared for by its current owners.
Enter through the picket fence and through the front door and you are greeted by a foyer which draws you in to the sun-filled living room. With soaring ceilings, this south-facing room boasts incredible period details including the beamed ceilings and deco-inspired fireplace. The wall of windows captures the views of the ridge in the distance, and the lush and mature gardens below. Open the door to the outside and you’ll find an expansive covered porch complete with ceiling fans, perfect for entertaining and relaxing. Adjacent to the living room is a formal dining room, which flows seamlessly to the charming kitchen.
Also on this level are the two bedrooms, one of which opens to the covered porch. A shared bathroom is both stylish and timeless with classic finishes. Downstairs, a bonus area is used as the private primary bedroom and features glass doors to access the gardens. A walk in closet and stylish, remodeled bathroom compete this suite. There are hardwood floors and gorgeous lighting fixtures throughout the home, and central air conditioning.
The large lot is landscaped with mature plantings including olive trees, a magnolia, a large level lawn. There are paths that meander throughout, so explore your way to the veggie garden, take some sun or some shade. Boasting tons of natural sunlight and privacy, this is a lovely respite. There is a laundry room under the house, as well as an attached 1 car garage.
Adjacent to downtown Fairfax, a charming town with many restaurants, a movie theatre, a wonderful farmers market in the park, and a lively music scene. Also in close proximity to Brookside Elementary School

Neighborhood
Great weather, access to hiking and biking trails, good schools, and a strong, vibrant downtown make San Anselmo a desirable destination for Marin County homebuyers looking to live a little off the beaten track.
The neighborhood surrounding the San Francisco Theological Seminary is a quiet, leafy enclave of large, older houses with well-tended yards. Heading up Butterfield Road will take you to the rolling hills above San Anselmo and sweeping views of the open spaces, grasslands, and oak trees of northern Marin County. Downtown, locals get their fill of gourmet comfort food at Comforts and their caffeine fix at the Marin Coffee Roasters. Shopping for antiques is a notable pastime here, with numerous stores devoted to discovering the perfect find.
San Anselmo is a town made for strolling. Small shops and many restaurants line the main street, which backs onto the active San Anselmo Creek. Insalata’s and Cucina Restaurant & Wine Bar are popular dinner destinations with locals.
