Originally built in 1907 and thoughtfully renovated over time, the approximately 3,153 sq ft main residence blends historic character with refined modern living. The living room, part of a generous great room, is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and framed by a wall of windows that invite natural light and views of the surrounding gardens. Beautiful old-growth redwood millwork adds warmth and architectural character throughout. The chef's kitchen features a premium appliance suite, including Sub-Zero refrigeration, Miele ovens, and a Wolf range with a grill and a warming drawer. Two bedrooms and a shared bath are located on the main level, with French doors opening to the terrace and gardens. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a peaceful retreat beneath a cathedral ceiling, with balcony views of the redwoods, a custom dressing room, and a spa-inspired bath featuring Calacatta Gold marble and radiant-heated tile. The lower level includes a laundry room and a flexible space ideal for a media room, office, or creative studio. Set on approximately 0.28 acres, the beautifully landscaped grounds feature a level lawn, fruit trees, vegetable garden beds, Bluestone terrace, privacy hedges, and a magnificent birch tree believed to be among the largest in Marin County. The property's creative legacy is extraordinary. In the detached cottage, Francis Ford Coppola wrote the screenplay for The Godfather, and George and Marcia Lucas edited American Graffiti in the Carriage House above the garage. Gathering spaces for genius that must be experienced. The compound includes the main residence, a detached cottage with a kitchen and a full bath, and a one-bedroom Carriage House apartment with its own address and private deck, offering exceptional flexibility for guests, extended family, or creative space. Just moments from the Mill Valley Library, Old Mill Park, Dipsea Steps, Cascade Falls, Old Mill Elementary, and vibrant downtown Mill Valley, this exceptional, storied property is awaiting its next epic chapter.
