Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1979, this property is in functional condition but shows clear signs of being outdated. While it features some updates like newer vinyl plank flooring and neutral paint, the kitchen retains older oak cabinetry and basic white appliances, and the bathroom features dated tile work and louvered closet doors. It meets the 'fair' criteria as an aged home maintained through regular upkeep but requiring cosmetic modernization.
Elementary School: Park Elementary School (9/10). Middle School: Mill Valley Middle School (9/10).
The property is served by highly-rated public schools with scores of 8 and 9, including Mill Valley Middle and Tamalpais High, providing exceptional educational value.
Priced at $559,000, this condo offers a rare and accessible entry point into the prestigious Mill Valley real estate market, which typically features much higher median prices.
The association fee of $710 per month is relatively high for a 696-square-foot one-bedroom unit, significantly increasing the total monthly carrying costs.
The property is currently tenant-occupied and requires a 24-hour notice for showings, which may complicate the viewing process and delay possession for owner-occupants.
