Set among towering redwoods on a quiet Mill Valley street, this one-of-a-kind home offers something rare: the feeling of living in a private forest retreat while staying moments from town, schools, parks, and daily conveniences.

A welcoming front deck leads into the main living level, where the living, dining, and kitchen spaces flow in an open-concept layout filled with natural light from oversized windows and skylights. The chef's kitchen features granite countertops, custom wood cabinetry, premium stainless appliances, and a generous island for gathering, homework, and casual meals. Rear deck access makes indoor-outdoor entertaining effortless. Downstairs, the private primary suite feels like a true sanctuary, opening to its own secluded deck. The newly renovated spa-style bath includes a deep porcelain soaking tub, heated shower floors, multiple shower heads, custom teak detailing, and a gray water diverter system that can nourish the surrounding redwoods. An additional bedrooms and a full bath complete this level, including a spacious and flexible third bedroom with a built-in office area, custom Murphy bed, generous storage, and floor-to-ceiling frameless windows and doors overlooking the terraced garden.
