Some properties are defined by the opportunity. This Mill Valley home is a prime example. On the sunny side of Mill Valley, 40 Alvarado enjoys sweeping views of Mt. Tamalpais and the surrounding coastal hills, in a serene setting with little traffic. This sweet spot location, on the prow of a ridge above the morning damp, gives easy access to town, parks, trails and award-winning schools, yet a convenient commute. Owned by the same family for nearly 70 years, it's the kind of property that rarely becomes available. The approximately 1,800-square-foot residence offers 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, generous living spaces, a detached garage and a variety of outdoor areas for seating, dining and play. Solidly built in 1939 of stout redwood framing, the home can be enjoyed as it is today, refreshed over time, or thoughtfully reimagined to take full advantage of the extraordinary setting. What makes 40 Alvarado particularly compelling is its combination of things you can't easily create elsewhere: sun, privacy, views, usable outdoor areas and great access. Prime Recreation & Education: You can be at the elementary school in under two minutes, or to a park in under three. The park has lawn, picnic and play areas, tennis courts, trees, creek and Little League diamonds. Mill Valley Tennis & Swim
