"Friendly and close-knit Mill Valley Neighborhood"

Homestead Valley is filled with history. From the first settlers to Jack Kerouc's house to the famous 2am club, you feel the past and present hanging in the air around you.
Homestead has a lovely neighborhood feel with Fourth of July gatherings and a wonderful trail (Pixie Trail) running through it where you're sure to meet your neighbor and catch up on current news. Some beautiful older homes and a sprinkling of 80's style houses dot the hillside, although a good part of Homestead is in the flats. Easy access to shopping close-by (Whole Foods, small boutique style shops) and the many restaurants that line Miller Ave. closeby.
Coyotes sing in the canyon at night to remind you that although you're close to the City, this is still the woods. I love the community spirit and sweet homes tucked away in this friendly and unassuming neighborhood.
Pros
  • Miller Ave. provides easy in and out access
  • Lovely community feel
  • Homestead Community Club-house has a pool and meeting facilites for neighbors in the area
Cons
  • A bit more fog than some areas of Mill Valley
  • I love coyotes...but cats do not!
  • Can be windy at times as the sea breezes pick up over the ridge
