Kentfield Homes For You
 Mount Tamalpais |
Kentfield homes and homes in Kent Woodlands are located in formal communities on larger lots. Part of Kentfield closest to the Corte Madera Creek is on level land, while Kent Woodlands climbs the slope of Mt. Tamalpais to Phoenix Lake. Kentfield homes on the hill may have sweeping views of the Bay and Mt. Tamalpais.
Sharing the flatlands is the main campus of the College of Marin. Nearby to Kentfield are small shopping areas with an excellent supermarket and hardware store. Like its neighbors, Larkspur and Ross, Kentfield has excellent schools. Kentfield has the highest rainfall in the county, because Mt. Tamalpais wrings the water out of the clouds as they come in from the ocean. This gives Kentfield lush vegetation and rushing winter streams.
