The Jewel Box of Edgewood Ave! Sixty-three steps from the street, and a world away from the ordinary. Nestled in a lush, forested setting on half an acre, this extremely well-maintained 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is one of those properties that feels like a discovery: private, serene, and beautifully considered at every turn. The entry level sets the tone with a radiant-heat slate floor, a wall of built-ins and a flexible third bedroom that functions equally well as an office or playroom, with its own entrance, deck and plumbing for easily added additional bath. From here, the main level opens up dramatically. Beamed ceilings soar overhead, wood floors run underfoot, and a stone fireplace anchors the living and dining area. Walls of windows and sliding doors lead to a deck that puts the surrounding forest front and center. The kitchen is a standout, with large windows framing views of the bay and scenic landscape, a center island with breakfast bar, a cozy informal eating area with built in bench and granite counters with striking lapis highlights that add an unexpected touch of character. Upstairs, beamed ceilings continue throughout. A generous landing open to the living room below makes a perfect home office, homework station or quiet reading spot. The primary bedroom features vaulted ceilings, skylights, lovely views, a walk-in closet with built-ins, retractable shades and an ensuite bath. The second bedroom offers beamed ceilings, a large closet with built-ins, a storage loft, and ensuite bath. Both baths open to the sauna. The large view deck accessed from the primary bedroom or along the front of the home is a neighborhood institution, currently set up as a soccer field and a favorite gathering spot for kids on the street. Additional highlights include guest half bath, separate laundry room, abundant storage including under the house, tankless water heater and EV charger. Close to the Dipsea Stairs, Pipeline Trail and downtown Mill Valley. Purchase includes additional lot, 1941 Sq. Ft. APN# 045-171-26 adding to the privacy of this property.
