Overview

It starts quietly. You turn off the main road and drop into Blithedale Canyon. The air cools. The light shifts. Redwoods rise around you, and the noise of everything else begins to fall away. Set across expansive, estate-like grounds, the property combines privacy, scale, and landscape in a way rarely found this close to downtown Mill Valley. This is 5 Marsh Drive. Long before the homes that define Mill Valley today, this land was part of something entirely different - an estate known as Miyajima, a Japanese-inspired compound created in the late 1800s by George T. Marsh. The grounds were known throughout the region for their beauty, their design, and the gatherings they hosted under lantern light. That history isn't something you read about it's something you feel. Today, the property has been reimagined through a modern architectural lens. Clean lines. Expanses of glass. Fleetwood doors that dissolve the boundary between inside and out. A home designed not to compete with its setting but to open fully to it. The main living spaces unfold with ease -kitchen, dining, living all oriented toward light, air, and the surrounding trees. Materials are warm, restrained, and intentional. Nothing feels overdone. And then you step outside. Decks and terraces cascade through the landscape. A fire pit tucked into the hillside. A bocce court. An outdoor kitchen built for long evenings that stretch well past sunset. The sound of water at the entry. Light filtering through redwoods that have stood here far longer than the home itself. There's a gate at the lower edge of the property that opens directly to Blithedale Canyon - trails just beyond, waiting. It's rare to find a home that feels this connected to nature, to design, and to something deeper. This is one of those places.
