Welcome to Kentfield

Some of the most beautiful homes in Marin can be found in Kentfield. The Kent Woodlands and Del Mesa neighborhoods feature spacious, architecturally stunning properties set on large, lushly landscaped parcels. Surrounded by nature, the community offers a serene atmosphere, popular with families seeking privacy, space, and easy access to top-tier education. With homes set closer together, Kentfield Gardens fosters a warm, close-knit community that comes alive with neighborhood events throughout the year – from Flamingo Friday potlucks to festive Halloween celebrations.

The heart of the community is Woodlands Market, a gourmet grocery store, bakery, flower shop and café that has served as Kentfield’s gathering hub for more than 20 years. Across the street is Guesthouse Marin, a neighborhood restaurant all about seasonality, West Coast charm & classic cocktails.

Public schools in Kentfield are some of the best in Marin. Bacich Elementary with one teacher for every twelve students, and Kent Middle School, with an API of 890, are in the top ten percent of schools in California. Kentfield is also home to Marin Catholic High School, the largest private school in Marin County, and the College of Marin, a two year community college with a strong community presence. College of Marin offers adult classes for the public, and a vibrant performing arts program of theater, vocal, and classical music. The frequent public performances provide neighborhood residents with access to the cultural arts not normally found in a town of 7,000.
