About this House

Sometimes a home speaks to you. 249 Cascade is this kind of home. This gracious lady whispers of times gone by and inspires you to dream of the history yet to be written.

Up the gated drive sits an elegant estate. The home features large common areas with vintage touches like stained glass accent windows, original floors, wainscoting, coved ceilings and window panes filled with views of magical Redwood forests.

The main floor features a front parlor, a formal dining room, living room, fantastic family room, half bath, kitchen and breakfast nook. The remodeled kitchen provides a wonderful platform for the inspiring chef. Counters of granite and stainless appliances are featured along with beautiful cabinetry and a tumbled marble floor.

All the bedrooms are upstairs. The master is a spacious retreat with fireplace, sitting alcove and a stunning newly remodeled master bath. The vintage soul of the home is evident in the tiniest detail. Carrera marble in the bath, attached view deck and stained glass windows add elegance to this retreat . There are two more bedrooms on this level, with lovely views and original floors that share a second bath.

The grounds of 249 Cascade Drive are truly amazing. When Harry Wainwright purchased this land in the 1891 auction he selected one of the most iconic parcels that Mill Valley had to offer. Blessed with stately Redwood groves, sun and in close proximity to the town`s center this is Mill Valley at it`s best. Two porches, three patios and a lovely sunny level lawn call out to be explored and enjoyed.

Over the years, from the Wainwright family until today, the stewards of this home have been inspired. One of the owners, Pete Sears, was a member of Jefferson Starship when he built a tree house in one of the Redwood trees for his young son. When asked about this home he said "We should never have sold that home. It holds a lot of special memories for us."

A home so rich in history is asking the question what will the future hold? The answer is time will tell, it always does. One thing for certain whoever buys this home is purchasing a Mill Valley dream that lives on today as strongly as when the home was built.

    "The neighbors are friendly and the views are great. this neighborhood is positioned in the middle of the Dipsea, Cypress, and Old Pipeline Trails, so running, hiking, and biking is just out your front door. In the center of the neighborhood there's a large permanent designated Open Space Park Area that used to be the Old Mill Valley Reservoir that people, kids, and dogs walk and play in. Their are only 12 houses on the private road, so there's not a lot of traffic and it's quiet and peaceful. Once a year there's an annual neighborhood block party at the end of Edgewood Ave. "
