Condition: Built in 2000 and described as 'refreshed with thoughtful updates,' this home presents as move-in ready. The kitchen features high-end Viking stainless steel appliances, modern white shaker cabinets, stone countertops, and a farmhouse sink, indicating a significant and recent update. The main living areas boast hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, and a well-maintained appearance. While the bathrooms are clean and functional, their light wood cabinetry and tile choices appear to be from an earlier period, likely closer to the original build or an older renovation, showing some signs of being outdated in style compared to the kitchen. However, they do not require immediate renovation. Overall, the property is well-maintained, and major systems appear functional, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.

Cons

Premium Price Point: The listing price of $2.95 million is a significant investment, positioning the property at the higher end of the market and potentially narrowing the buyer pool.
Limited Detail on Specific Upgrades: While 'thoughtful updates' are mentioned, the description lacks specific details on high-end finishes, appliances, or smart home technology that buyers at this price point often expect.
Potential for Landscape Maintenance: A large lot 'surrounded by greenery' in a hilly area like Mill Valley may imply significant ongoing landscape maintenance or potentially less flat, usable yard space, which could be a consideration for some buyers.
