Unexpected appeal:


A welcoming neighborly feel in an unexpected location.

 

In many bedroom communities, you won’t find much charm, but Larkspur is in a different category altogether, managing to maintain a historical downtown that’s remained relatively unchanged despite modern development in the area.

Median prices are high at $1.6 million, but not the highest in the area.
