Kentfield is a quiet, upscale community that blends estate-style living with easy access to nature and top-tier schools. The neighborhood is best known for its serene setting at the base of Mount Tamalpais, with leafy roads, gated homes, and a deeply residential character. Many properties in Kentfield offer generous lot sizes, mature landscaping, and a sense of privacy that’s hard to find this close to town. Outdoor access is one of Kentfield’s strongest assets. Baltimore Canyon trails are right at the edge of the neighborhood, and the nearby Corte Madera Creek path offers a scenic route for joggers and cyclists. Residents are also minutes from the Marin Art and Garden Center, College of Marin, and the charming shops and cafes in Ross and Larkspur. Despite its semi-rural feel, Kentfield is very much part of the Marin fabric — close to Highway 101 but tucked far enough away to feel like a retreat. Homes here are high-end and highly coveted, and it shows in the overall maintenance and quiet beauty of the neighborhood.
