Unique Tudor Style Home with bonus cottage

Nicknamed "Toad Hall," this one-of-a-kind Gothic Tudor style home sits at the base of Mount Tamalpais, surrounded by towering redwoods, bay trees, and seasonal creeks, with easy access to nearby trails, Muir Woods, and all the outdoor recreation that makes this area so sought after. Located in the heart of Mill Valley, one of Marin County's most desirable communities, the property offers a rare combination of privacy, charm, and proximity nature. The main house offers three bedrooms and three baths. Two bedrooms are located on the lower level. One features walls covered in vintage maps and painted suits of armor. The other is wrapped in warm redwood paneling. The primary bedroom occupies the top floor and feels like a private retreat, with soft peach walls, ceiling height windows, a custom wallpapered bath, and its own rooftop balcony. The expansive living room showcases dramatic 25 foot vaulted ceilings, a sunroom, and a custom mantel flanked by two carved lions guarding a wood burning fireplace. The kitchen is equipped with a six burner gas stove, double oven, and a new refrigerator. A rare bonus is the fully detached standalone cottage, complete with its own bedroom, kitchenette, and bathroom. It's ideal for a private home office, guest quarters, creative studio, or extended family living space. Storage is abundant throughout the home, including hidden spaces beneath the stairs, built ins within the walls, and oversized closets. Parking is generous, with a large open garage, a spacious driveway, and one reserved street space.
