A garden bungalow in Blithedale Canyon

Brick steps climb through new lavender to a glass front door in Baked Terra Cotta, the first hint of what’s inside. 25 Blithedale Terrace sits on a quiet cul-de-sac in Blithedale Canyon, under mature trees. It feels private here.

The garden is just as much a part of the house from inside. Broad windows frame the foliage, and dark wood trusses cross a vaulted white ceiling in the living room. The dining nook sits right by the glass, where you can watch the light move across the garden, and sliding glass doors from the living area and the kitchen open directly to the patio.

The 2026 updates bring color and texture to the house. The kitchen sets the tone, with cabinets in deep Jade Romanesque under milk glass schoolhouse lights. The bath is rebuilt to the studs: a Kohler Elmbrook tub, subtly varied Bedrosians Cloe tile stacked to the ceiling and a penny round floor.

One flight up, Hale Navy wraps the walls and pitched ceiling of the newly carpeted loft. There’s an office area, a laundry closet and a flex space for a guest room, nursery or gym.

Out back, sunlight spills across a series of curved brick patios. There’s room to set a table for friends, pull up a chair under the changing leaves, or pick something from the raised vegetable beds for dinner. Flower beds soften the brick edges, and a little gabled shed sits tucked among the trees. The sunny lot has level areas for dining, lounging and gardening, and buyers interested in adding space can explore expansion possibilities with the City of Mill Valley.
