About this House

Situated on a quarter-acre lot in Mill Valley's coveted Tamalpais Valley, this recently constructed 5BD/3.5BA home offers ~3,900 sq ft of beautifully designed living space with high-end finishes and thoughtful details throughout. Built into the hillside to maximize privacy and views, the home features multiple outdoor living areas and easy access to world-class hiking and biking trails, all just minutes from Highway 101 and the Golden Gate Bridge.

Upon entry, you're welcomed into a formal living room with soaring ceilings, a sleek gas fireplace, and windows that frame expansive views. A staircase leads up to the main living level, where the open-concept family room and kitchen create the heart of the home. The chef's kitchen is anchored by a marble-topped island with seating and features a Miele speed oven, Viking gas range, SubZero refrigerator, and custom white oak cabinetry offering excellent storage. Off the kitchen is a formal dining room, perfect for entertaining, as well as a stylish powder room.

Upstairs, the spacious primary suite includes a private balcony, a spa-like en-suite bath with soaking tub, oversized standing shower, and dual vanities. Two additional bedrooms share a second private balcony and are both large enough for king beds and share a hall bath with a shower-over-tub.

    "Used to live in this area; now live in another area of Mill Valley, have worked near here for many years. This area is a great commute to SF, hiking, beaches, and only a few minutes drive to downtown Mill Valley. More private and quiet than the close to town properties except those way up the hills. Great school in neighborhood and recently redone park with play area, picnic and tennis. "
