Home of the Week- 429 Green Glen Way

The first open house for this fantastic property was just yesterday, and for the 20 minutes we attended it felt like about 30 people came through. That is because for the price- $848,000- you can't do much better than this right now in Mill Valley. Even though this is a smaller house, there are three bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, an amazing open kitchen and living room, expansive decks with a view of Mt. Tamalpais, and the house has been carefully remodeled with some really great finishes including stainless steel countertops, a Dacor 6 burner cooktop, 2 fireplaces, a whole bunch of skylights, timbertech decking, and beautiful brazilian cherry floors. The lot is over 10,000 square feet and has a play area in the back for kids and a fenced in area in the front which would be good for dogs. Upstairs there are two bedrooms and a bath, with the master bedroom opening out to the front deck, and downstairs there is another bedroom and bath which could work as an au pair unit, a guest bedroom/office, etc. Like 18 Hazel it is definitely not for those looking for a McMansion. But perhaps due to all the outdoor space (which makes it feel almost like a mini-estate) and the great layout of the house it definitely feels bigger than it is and we guess this will be in escrow within a week.

July 21 UPDATE: As predicted, we have been told this property now has an accepted offer- so just over a week!
