California, Marin County, Mill Valley, USA

Welcome to 120 Ricardo Road, a fully remodeled residence located in the sought-after Strawberry Manor neighborhood of Mill Valley. This 5-bedroom, 3.5 bath home sits on a large, corner, sunny lot and features a spacious optimal floor plan. Upon entering the home, the first thing you notice is the view through the home out to the lush backyard with mature trees. The living room features walls of glass with southern exposure for year-round natural light and a cozy wood burning fireplace. Off the living room is the intimate dining room with French doors leading out to the patio. The brand-new kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a breakfast counter and wall to wall windows looking out at trees and foliage. The expansive family room flows the entire width of the home and includes a powder room for guests. Upstairs is the ultimate primary suite, with vaulted exposed beam ceilings, a sitting area, closet, home gym (or room to expand the closet) and a spa-like bathroom with soaking tub and walk-in shower. Two large bedrooms are located on the main floor in the east wing as well as a full guest bathroom. The lower level of the home is perfect for family or guests on longer visits or for an Au Pair. With its own entrance, two guest rooms, a full bath and second living room with kitchenette, the lower level provides a flexibility that most homes do not. When you step outside to the back yard, it feels like you are transported to Provence, with light stucco walls planted with lavender and multiple outdoor lounging areas. There is a large stone patio for entertaining and dining al fresco, a wood burning brick grill, lush lawn and terraces for sitting by the fire, sun bathing and enjoying the California weather with peak-a-boo water views. The home includes a detached two-car garage, off-street parking for guests and is close to everything. Twelve minutes by car to San Francisco, a two-minute stroll to Strawberry Rec with tennis, swimming and sports fields, four minutes to Harbor Cove for shoreline access and near tons of shops, grocery stores and restaurants. This home truly has it all.
