Live in this unique, private, and historic Marin home in Mill Valley, California. Located at the base of beautiful Mount Tamalpais, just 5 minutes from downtown Mill Valley, and 30 minutes from San Francisco, this private estate is surrounded by natural beauty. Meticulously and thoughtfully restored in 2008 by a professional photographer, the residence blends historic character with modern comfort. Guided by an artist's eye, original details have been carefully preserved and subtly enhanced, with a sensitivity to natural light, texture, and timeless design. The home includes four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and one-half bath. A generous main-level deck with a covered firepit provides an inviting space for outdoor entertaining. This exceptional property dates to 1910, when it was built as a wedding gift for the daughter of Sydney B. Cushing, namesake of the Cushing Memorial Amphitheatre on Mount Tamalpais. The home was later owned by U.S. Senator and esteemed scholar S.I. Hayakawa, and was thoughtfully remodeled in 1956 by his brother-in-law, William Wesley Peters—Frank Lloyd Wright’s chief engineer. Set on just under an acre, the gated property features a spacious driveway, lush mature gardens with towering redwood, oak, and maple trees, and sweeping, unobstructed views of Mount Tamalpais, the Marin Headlands, and the redwood forest of West Blithedale Canyon.
