About This Home
As of June 2026Tucked into one of Mill Valley's most convenient pockets, this inviting property offers a rare combination of character, flexibility, and accessfeaturing a 1-bedroom main residence alongside a detached studio cottage. The main home is defined by tall, open-beam ceilings, cozy fireplace, and rich wood detailing that bring warmth and texture throughout. Both the bedroom and living area open directly to a generous, sunlit deck, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connectionwell-suited for entertaining or quiet everyday living. A spacious backyard and attached garage further enhance the functionality. Set apart from the main home, the studio cottage carries its own sense of charm, complete with a private deck and a vintage feelideal for guests, a home office, or creative use. The entire property enjoys abundant greenery, privacy, and tranquility. Set in a peaceful, tucked-away private location just moments from the everyday conveniences along Miller Avenue and in Homestead Valley, the home is equally close to downtown Mill Valley and Tam Junction. Access to top-rated schools, expansive open space, Marin's beaches, and San Francisco is all within easy reach.
