Muir Woods Park on Mount Tamalpais
Living on Mount Tamalpais in Mill Valey
Homes on Mount Tamalpais provide exceptional access to open space, state and national parks, and a rural lifestyle. The Panoramic/Muir Park neighborhood is along a ridge of the 2,600-foot mountain, at the eastern edge of Mill Valley. Homes are often set in redwood groves and provide a unique rural setting. Many homes have vistas of Mount Tamalpias, San Francisco Bay, and the Pacific Ocean.

The ride “down the mountain” to Mill Valley takes only 10-15 minutes. In the opposite direction, Stinson Beach is about 8 miles or a 20 minute drive.
