About this House

Harkle Road, offered for sale for the first time ever by the original family that built this remarkable Novato property. The offer consists of seven detached homes situated across approximately 2.25 acres, including two of Novato's most recognizable residences: the rotating Round House (Turns 320 degrees) and the iconic Potato Chip House. Opportunities to acquire approximately 2.25 acres of buildable land in Novato already improved with seven income-producing homes are exceptionally rare. The property offers an incoming owner the ability to preserve a unique piece of local history while exploring the potential to add additional homes or subdivide the land, subject to independent investigation and approval by the City of Novato and all other applicable agencies. All seven homes are tenant occupied and separately metered for water, gas and electricity. Tenants pay their own utilities, leaving the landlord responsible primarily for property taxes and insurance and helping keep operating expenses exceptionally low. This is far more than a traditional seven-unit investment. It is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to acquire an irreplaceable Novato property with existing income, significant land, historic character and compelling long-term upside. Please do not enter Harkle Road without permission. The homes are located on private property and require permission to view.

    "Many people walk their dogs here and there is a pretty good dog park. Not everyone is friendly however and many people will actively avoid you if they see you with a dog. This is the opposite of mendocino county where I made lots of close relationships with my neighbors from dog walking. I would not expect that here."

    "I have lived within walking distance of downtown Novato for over 15 years. In the past five years, I feel the town seems to be making more of an effort to create events. There are a good variety of restaurants and grocery stores. It’s safe and there is great access to nature and hikes, particularly Indian Valley Campus is beautiful. My neighbors are kind and the area is dog friendly. I feel fairly safe, though I would not walk alone at night as a woman. There is some homelessness and I have been harassed before by people who are drunk or on drugs, but this is an issue in any city these days. It’s not frequent. That said, it’s very expensive to live here and it gets very hot! Make sure you have AC"
