A Mill Valley Original

Originally built in 1948 as a love letter from a husband to his English bride, 201 Cascade captures the warmth and romance of an English cottage in a setting that is quintessentially Mill Valley. The four-bedroom, two-bath home is rich with character, from clear redwood paneling and wood-beamed ceilings to divided-pane windows and doors, brick accents, and a shelf-lined library reading nook. Walls of windows draw the outdoors in, while the light-filled dining area is surrounded by glass with beautiful views into the garden.

Set on approximately three-quarters of an acre, the property is a rare sun-filled sanctuary tucked among the redwoods. Meandering pathways connect generous flat garden areas and intimate outdoor spaces, creating endless opportunities to gather, garden, play, or simply enjoy the peaceful setting. Despite its sense of privacy, the home is wonderfully connected to town, located along Mill Valley’s beloved Lovell Loop with an easy walk to downtown, a special combination of history, character, nature, and location that is increasingly hard to find.

Explore the 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.
