Single-Level Corte Madera Living with a Private Backyard and the Added Advantage of a Non-Flood-Zone Location
26 El Camino brings together the comfort of a well-updated Corte Madera home with the kind of outdoor space that makes staying in feel just as appealing as leaving the house. Located in the Marin Estates neighborhood, the three-bedroom, two-bath home has a practical layout, generous natural light, and a warm, inviting feel throughout. The galley kitchen has been completely remodeled with custom cabinetry, hardwood floors, and a suite of premium Wolf, Sub-Zero, and Miele appliances, while the dining room and living room create natural spaces for formal and casual, everyday meals.
The backyard opens up to a large deck with a built-in BBQ island and grill, a separate patio with a built-in fire pit, and a level turf lawn that leaves plenty of room for play, pets, or enjoying time outdoors. A gated front yard, landscaped grounds, outdoor storage, and attached two-car garage round out a home that has been substantially improved over the years while retaining the comfortable character of its Corte Madera setting.
