Tucked at the end of a quiet court, 1422 Novato Court is the kind of turnkey home you don't find often. Recent improvements include a 200-amp electrical panel upgrade with EV charging capability, a new water line, and a remodeled garage with a new garage door. The open floor plan makes the most of every inch, with three bedrooms and two bathrooms - including an ensuite primary - conveniently located on one side of the home, and a living, dining, and kitchen great room on the other side. The living space flows seamlessly to the backyard, perfect for indoor/outdoor living and entertaining. The 10,000-square-foot yard is extremely private, with views of the ridgeline and Napa Valley-inspired landscaping. The garden features raised beds and native California plantings. It's less "backyard" and more private retreat. And then there's the neighborhood. The walkability here is hard to beat: ridge trails with views of the East Bay and Mt. Diablo, a short walk to The Market for coffee, and Larkey Park nearby. It's a centrally located pocket of town - 7 minutes to Downtown Walnut Creek, 2 minutes to Lunardi's and the Palos Verdes shopping center, 7 minutes to BART, and 4 minutes to the freeway. It's a rare combination of convenience and community. Homes like this, in a location like this, don't come around often.
