Mill Valley’s Pinnacle of Sustainable Luxury

2 Upper Alcatraz Place | Mill Valley, CA

At the intersection of architectural brilliance, environmental innovation, and rare walkable seclusion lies 2 Upper Alcatraz Place—a Net Zero certified compound unlike anything else in Mill Valley. Designed for those who value craftsmanship, cutting-edge sustainability, and panoramic views, this extraordinary property redefines the standard for luxury living in Marin.

Positioned above downtown Mill Valley on a private cul-de-sac shared with just six other homes, this newly built, multi-structure estate features:
