About this House

A sunny, private home in Mill Valley's sought-after Middle Ridge neighborhood is available for lease through June 30, 2027, then available for annual rental after that.

Originally built in the 1920s as a summer cottage for San Francisco residents seeking a Marin retreat, the home completely renovated over the years retains much of its original character while offering approximately 2,650 square feet of living space.

The home features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, an enclosed wraparound porch around the living room with excellent natural light, and an open kitchen with bay windows overlooking the home's landscaping. The house constructed in the 20's still has original fur paneling and trim throughout which gives the home a warm feel.

The property sits on approximately half an acre of thoughtfully maintained landscaping, wooded with oak trees and reflects the native flora of the Middle Ridge area. It's on top of the ridge with sunshine and expansive views all around. The setting is private and quiet, while remaining close to downtown Mill Valley and nearby Mt Tam.

    "Mill Valley is Dog Town. The dog parks are the best in the world right along the bay. Shop owners have water for dogs; many have treats for them, too. We have thousands of dogs here!"

    "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. "
