The Summit House presents a rare opportunity to own a private estate at one of the highest points in Mill Valley. This four bedroom, three and a half bathroom residence spans approximately 3,900 square feet and is set on over 1.5 acres along a private road with no through traffic, offering exceptional privacy, sun exposure, and sweeping outlooks above the coastal fog. Positioned above it all, the property enjoys some of the best weather in Mill Valley, remaining sunny and warm through sunset while much of the valley cools below.

The home captures extraordinary 280 degree views stretching from the East Bay across San Francisco to Mount Tamalpais, with direct sightlines to the city skyline and beyond. From this vantage point, you will experience both sunrises and sunsets from a single property, an exceptionally rare offering. Hawks often glide at eye level, reinforcing the truly elevated setting.

Designed across three levels, the home features expansive wraparound decks and walls of glass that fully open to create seamless indoor outdoor living. The outdoor spaces are designed for year round enjoyment, complete with ceiling mounted infrared heaters, an outdoor television, a sunny level lawn, outdoor shower, and a saltwater hot tub positioned to take in the dramatic sunset views.

The south facing orientation enhances natural light throughout the day, while the scale of the lot offers flexibility and future potential, including the possibility for an ADU, pool, or further development opportunities. A two car garage with substantial storage and a large additional room below provides further versatility.

Despite its sense of privacy and resort like setting, the property is located just six minutes from downtown Mill Valley and offers immediate access to some of the area’s most sought after hiking and biking trails on Mount Tam. With its combination of scale, sun, views, and proximity, 5 Walden Lane represents a truly exceptional Mill Valley offering.

Neighborhood

Family-friendly Mill Valley is all about schools and sports. Nestled at the foot of Mount Tamalpais, homes in the Marin County city range from 500-square-foot hunter's cabins to multimillion-dollar mansions tucked away on winding, narrow lanes under the redwoods. Coffee is king in Mill Valley. Downtown, three separate coffee shops do a brisk business. At the Depot, as the sunny town center is called, moms with strollers, kids on tricycles, and teenagers kicking hacky sacks relax in the open-air plaza, which now houses an independent bookstore and cafe. The Depot is also a jumping-off spot for hikers and mountain bikers heading up the slopes of Mount Tamalpais. Nightlife in Mill Valley is anchored by Sweetwater Music Hall, which hosts many well-known musical acts. As the groomed playing fields at the community center attest, sports are big in Mill Valley, with soccer, baseball, and lacrosse leagues all popular.
