About this house rental
The Home
Set into the hillside in one of Mill Valley's most walkable downtown-adjacent neighborhoods, this fully renovated 3-bedroom, 3-bath home blends the warmth of classic Marin architecture with the polish of a recent top-to-bottom refresh. Light pours in from every direction, ceilings soar with exposed beams and skylights, and indoor and outdoor living flow together effortlessly — exactly the kind of place that makes a summer in Mill Valley feel like the version of California people move here for.
Open-concept great room.
The heart of the home is a sun-filled open-plan living, dining, and sitting area anchored by a wood-clad fireplace and oak floors throughout. A long live-edge dining table seats eight comfortably beneath a sculptural linear chandelier, with the dining area opening directly onto the kitchen and a second seating area built around the fireplace. Linen sectionals, a sculptural blue accent chair, and curated artwork give the space a relaxed but elevated feel — equally suited to morning coffee with the paper or a long dinner party that spills onto the deck.
Chef's kitchen.
Recently renovated with white shaker cabinetry, stone counters, stainless appliances, gas range. Bright, functional, and easy to cook in for groups.
The deck.
A standout. A large entertaining deck wraps the back of the home, framed by mature trees and open sky, with a long teak dining table for al fresco meals and a deep lounge seating arrangement built for late-afternoon cocktails and lingering summer evenings. This is the space that defines the home's summer character.
Family room.
A separate downstairs family room is anchored by an oversized Restoration Hardware sectional facing a large flat-screen — the kind of room built for movie nights, lazy Sunday afternoons, and kids spread out with books and games. French doors open to the outdoor sitting balcony, flooding the room with light.
Primary suite.
Vaulted shiplap ceiling, abundant natural light, private outdoor access, and a spa-grade en-suite bath featuring a double vanity in honed marble, a walk-in glass shower with skylight, and matte black fixtures. Quiet, restful, and finished to a hotel standard.
Additional bedrooms.
A second bedroom with a queen bed and skylit vaulted ceiling looks out into the canopy of trees. A third bedroom is set up for kids and families, featuring a full-over-full bunk bed with trundle (sleeps up to five), a mounted TV, and bookshelf — and a daybed, and playful zebra-print accent wall makes the home genuinely workable for families traveling with little ones.
Bathrooms.
All three bathrooms have been fully renovated with current materials and fixtures — marble, designer tile, glass enclosures, and skylights bringing natural light into every space.
The setting.
A few blocks to downtown Mill Valley's restaurants, cafés, and Sweetwater Music Hall. One block to the Mill Valley Tennis Club and pool. 6 minute walk to Boyle Park and the Little League fields. 10 minute walk to Mill Valley Golf Course. Trailheads to Mt. Tam and the Dipsea steps are minutes away. The Discovery Museum, Marin Headlands, and Golden Gate Bridge is a 15-minute drive; downtown San Francisco and Stinson Beach about 25.
Guest access
The entire home is available for guest use, including all kitchen and laundry appliances, with the exception of the basement and garage.
