286 Marion Ave, Mill Valley, CA 94941

Reminiscent of an Italian villa, 286 Marion Avenue exudes character. From the prohibition era speakeasy tucked away on the mezzanine level, to the stunning grand room with its coffered 13 foot high ceilings, this home is truly one-of-a-kind. The main... house has 4 bedrooms - all upstairs - and three and a half baths - all recently remodeled. The primary bath boasts a steam shower, heated floors and a jacuzzi tub. The eat-in kitchen with custom Douglas fir cabinetry also has heated floors, an oversized skylight, and a generous pantry with a hidden half bath. The dining room - adjacent to the kitchen and with a set of stairs that take you directly to the bar - opens on to an al fresco dining patio via nano doors for seamless indoor/outdoor flow. Across the patio from the kitchen - over the garage - there is a large separate home office. There is also a separate home gym and workshop area and a large level turf lawn for kicking or throwing a ball around. The mature garden boasts lemon, grapefruit, tangerine, apple and fig trees - with a few Japanese Maples, several birds of paradise and a bunch of banana palms thrown in for good measure. On a half acre fenced lot, there is plenty of terrain everyone to explore. Located at the top of the first set of Dipsea stairs, it is a quick trip down to Old Mill elementary school, Old Mill park, the Mill Valley library and downtown Mill Valley.
