1122 Bel Marin Keys Blvd Novato, CA 94949

On the coveted lagoon side of Bel Marin Keys, this waterfront home is designed around what matters most: life outdoors. The backyardthe true heart of the propertyopens to the south, bathing the pool, hot tub, dock, and waterfront entertaining spaces in sunshine throughout the day. Wide lagoon views, peaceful surroundings, and direct water access create a setting that feels more like a retreat than everyday life. Life here naturally revolves around the backyard. Layered with mature landscaping, palms, fountains, and multiple spaces to gather, unwind, or entertain, it offers a rare combination of privacy and openness. The dock extends directly into the lagoon for easy access to kayaking, paddleboarding, boating, or simply enjoying life on the water. Mature plum and cherry trees add seasonal color and homegrown fruit, bringing an ever-changing beauty to the waterfront landscape. Inside, generous living spaces and abundant natural light create a comfortable connection to the outdoors. The upstairs primary suite is positioned to take full advantage of the elevated lagoon views, creating a private retreat where mornings begin with shimmering water and evenings end with spectacular sunsets. Two additional bedrooms on the main level enjoy a completely different perspective, opening toward a secluded garden patio framed by a vibrant lemon tree, fragrant rosemary, and the soothing sound of a fountain. It's a peaceful outdoor escape tucked away from the activity of the waterfront, offering a quiet place to relax, read, or recharge. The home has been updated where it counts, while still leaving room for future vision. New flooring throughout, fresh interior and exterior paint, recessed lighting, new slider doors, a new roof, gutters, garage door, and updated low-flow toilets provide a strong foundation for years to come. At the same time, the home's original character and distinctive architectural details offer an opportunity for the next owner to personalize and make it their own. Bel Marin Keys has never been about perfection. It's about launching a kayak from your backyard, taking an evening cruise through the lagoon, watching herons and egrets glide overhead, and enjoying a pace of life that feels worlds away from the rest of the Bay Area. This is a rare opportunity to embrace that lifestyle in one of the community's most desirable waterfront settings.
