Remarks

Offering this rare opportunity to own a Mediterranean style gem in this sought-after Old Palo Alto location! The terracotta tile roof and charming tile porch set the tone for this welcoming home. High ceilings, a dramatic gallery of skylights, and an abundance of windows create a warm and light- filled space. The living room boasts a beautiful picture window framing a pink magnolia tree that blooms every spring, and the primary bedroom and sitting room or office make a private and luxurious retreat. The 2nd office adjacent to the kitchen adds flexibility to work from home. The private backyard, highlighted by a wisteria covered deck, is perfect for al fresco dining and entertaining. The home has been lovingly maintained by the same owner for over 62 years. A major remodel in 1985, plus more recent improvements to the electrical, heating and air-conditioning, plumbing and sewer systems, add to the new flooring and paint. Just a few scenic blocks from the Elizabeth Gamble Garden, the Lucie Stern Community Center, University Avenue, the Town and Country shopping center, Whole Foods Market, Palo Alto High School and other top-rated Palo Alto schools, Stanford University, many local parks, and more. This home has so much to offer and is one not to miss!
