49 Woodside Lane Mill Valley CA 94941 MLS #326038234

Tucked along a quiet lane in the heart of Mill Valley, this thoughtfully designed custom home, with exceptional quality materials, offers a rare blend of privacy, design, and connection to nature. Upon entry, dramatic walls of glass and expansive IPE decks, one of four through-out the property, frames surrounding redwood trees and showcases peek a boo views of the San Francisco Bay, Alcatraz, Angel Island, Blithedale Ridge, and the iconic Bay Bridge, especially striking when illuminated at night. Designed to maximize both privacy and outlooks, the home offers a serene, light-filled living experience, enhanced by extensive glass on the interior stairs and both upper and lower decks. The main level features a seamless open layout with living and dining areas, a wood burning stove, and remodeled kitchen with custom clear alder cabinetry by Mill Valley Cabinet Works. Knotty alder floors run throughout, while stained Honduran mahogany window trim upstairs adds warmth and refined detail. A custom rock shower, crafted from rich Hopland cobble by a local artisan, creates a spa-like, open-air experience that embraces both privacy and the natural setting. The upper IPE deck, complete with built-in speakers, is ideal for morning coffee, alfresco dining, or evening gatherings. Downstairs, three bedrooms offer comfort and flexibility that opens to a second IPE deck, and third bedroom to a side yard deck continuing the seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A full bath includes a glass-enclosed shower with three shower heads, a spa tub, dual sinks, and integrated laundry. Outside, a garden and stone-lined patio with seating provide a private setting often visited by local wildlife. Set on a peaceful lane of approx. 18 homes with a close-knit feel, the property connects to pathway #12 leading to Ethel Avenue and downtown. Enjoy easy access to Sweetwater Music Hall, Mill Valley Market, and nearby trails including Mount Tamalpais, Muir Woods, and Stinson Beach. Just minutes to San Francisco, this is a true Northern California sanctuary not to be missed.
