Downtown Mill Valley Vintage Spanish Villa with Beautiful Garden

Downtown Mill Valley | Spanish Villa | Private Garden | Mt. Tam Views
A rare and lovingly maintained Spanish-Mediterranean villa in the heart of downtown Mill Valley — one of the most coveted addresses in all of Marin County. Owned by the same family for 20 years, this 3,300 sq ft home across three floors offers four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a stunning private garden oasis, and sweeping Mt. Tamalpais views.
The Home
Built with timeless character and flooded with natural light, this home is as beautiful as it is comfortable. Morning sun pours through east-facing windows while warm afternoon light fills the western rooms throughout the day.
The master suite occupies its own private top floor — a true retreat featuring a king bed, soaking tub, walk-in shower, and Smart TV. Two additional bedrooms on the main floor share a well-appointed bathroom with tub and shower. The lower level offers a fourth bedroom with private bath, a large family room with HD Smart TV, and full laundry — perfect for families or groups who value their own space.
The fully stocked cook's kitchen features professional-grade appliances, a butcher block island, and quality cookware — everything you need for a proper meal at home.
The Garden
Step outside to a lush, secluded private garden with a stone patio, mature plantings, and comfortable outdoor seating. It's the perfect spot for morning coffee, evening wine, or simply unwinding after a day of exploring.
A Lived-In Home, Not a Rental Unit
This is a part-time residence, not a full-time vacation rental — and guests consistently say that's exactly what makes it special. The home is furnished and stocked the way a family actually lives, which means you'll find real cookware, real books, real art, and the kind of thoughtful touches that no staged rental can replicate. A few personal items remain as part of the home's character, and if anything, guests tell us it only adds to the warmth. Our reviews speak for themselves.
