About This Home

As of April 2022

Wonderfully open, light-drenched home on one of the most coveted streets in Mill Valley. Two short blocks to town, the location embraces the bustle of the village, while enjoying unique privacy by being set back from the street and nestled in a lush, magical garden setting. Three bedrooms upstairs with soaring ceilings, and an open main level, allow for great flow. A large concrete fireplace, oversized French doors and skylights throughout provide a modern, yet cozy feel. With a large separate garage (playroom? gym?), a driveway, and loads of street parking, entertaining guests is a breeze. Enjoy a large front deck with a poured concrete lounging bench and fire pit for outdoor entertaining or Sunday afternoon naps. Backyard, currently a concrete sport court, can easily be reclaimed if so desired, as the property goes street to street from W.Blithedale to a private lane at back. With plenty of storage and a non-conforming bonus room/dude den below, there is nothing that this home lacks.
