Soaring 20 ft ceilings, huge windows! This lovely cottage was originally a music studio for the owner, a performing musician and teacher. Now in its second life as a guest cottage, you can still feel the happy vibe of the space! Fully renovated in Sept. of 2020, the large 1200sf space is fresh, upscale, and very Marin. The light-filled great room has soaring 20' ft. ceilings and walls of windows looking out onto woodlands. The cottage is located in a quiet, private 2-acre property walking distance to town and convenient to both San Francisco and wine country. The Musician's Cottage is nestled in our peaceful, historic family property along with our Victorian main house and another cottage. The grounds are landscaped beautifully with wild woodlands behind. The cottage has access to a lovely green front lawn and a private back deck. Hummingbirds and butterflies flit about, deer are frequent visitors, and we even get the occasional fox. As you enter the cottage you feel the freshness of a full, high-quality renovation. There is a new kitchen, a dining area flooded by light from double french doors, an incredible great room with double-height ceilings and a small loft for reading or stashing an extra guest. Enormous windows surround the great room on three sides and look onto old sculptural oaks; you'll feel like you are in a treehouse. The bedroom wing features a quiet master bedroom with woodland views, a large, luxurious new bathroom, and a twin bedroom. The renovation was done by an award-winning San Francisco designer, and all furnishings, fixtures and finishes are stylish and of the highest quality. And another plus: There is so much outdoor space to enjoy! A private back deck, a small front patio, and the large common lawn and gardens in front. Breathe deep, enjoy! The property is entirely private, with no traffic noise and surrounded by nature. But here's the kicker: It's only 1 minute from a main thoroughfare of Marin County, Sir Francis Drake. This means every convenience is close by: grocery stores, restaurants, etc. The charming small town of Kentfield is walking distance away (about 7 min down a steep hill) with a fantastic deli/ gourmet store and two restaurants. Best of all, we are in central Marin, the best part of one of the safest and most beautiful counties in the land. Marin is world-renowned for its year-round fantastic mild weather and its hiking, biking, and kayaking. Sunny central Marin, in particular, is free of the chilly fog that plaques southern Marin (Mill Valley, Sausalito, Stinson Beach) and San Francisco. Central Marin, moreover, is located about halfway between San Francisco and wine country, making it convenient to both. It's no wonder that so many Marinites call this place Paradise! This is the perfect place to bring your pooch along on vacation! The property has a central common lawn for the doggos to play, and is a gated compound at the dead end of a road so very little traffic (except us). Rosie the resident mini-bernadoodle is a wonderful hostess and always up for playtime! Pet policy: 1 dog 50 lb and older than 1 year welcome in the cottage. No cats. Dog must be cleaned up after scrupulously. Dogs with behavior issues like chewing or excessive barking are not allowed. If dog’s paws are dirty wash and dry them at the “Dog Paw Washing Station” next to the lawn (towels in grey bin) before entering the cottage. If more than just their paws are dirty please give them a bath before re-entering. Use provided couch and bed covers. $50 nonrefundable pet fee. NOTE: Your unit comes with two assigned parking spots, on the tight side. They are large enough for 2 standard-size cars (compact to midsized), one full sized car and one compact, or one large or oversized vehicle. No additional cars allowed on the property, even just for dropoff. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Electric car charging station on site - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total (up to 50 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - In a village - In the mountains - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Electric car charging station - Garden - Unit size: 1,200 square feet ## Similar properties ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/33000000/32400000/32392300/32392253/f2f18d01.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### A country retreat near San Francisco Mill Valley - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 297 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=32392253&PinnedHotelID=32392253&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/94000000/93140000/93135400/93135394/e20e6d41.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Modern Garden View Home w/ free parking, unique art & furniture: a Superhost Mill Valley - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 53 reviews CA $319 CA $584 total includes taxes & fees Oct 14 - Oct 15 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-14&endDate=2025-10-15&selected=93135394&PinnedHotelID=93135394&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96380000/96379500/96379434/6fc4a4b5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Dog-friendly cottage with porch in quiet neighborhood, close to everything San Rafael - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.2 Wonderful 15 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=96379434&PinnedHotelID=96379434&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/102000000/101740000/101738300/101738295/e319c1f0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Light filled, tree house, surrounded by nature. 7 minute walk from downtown.
