Remarks

Impressive curb appeal and timeless design define this stately Silicon Valley home, set on a tranquil cul-de-sac. Less than 30 years young, the residence opens with a grand entry and sweeping staircase, leading into a light-filled great room with high ceilings, a cozy adjacent bonus nook, and an exquisitely renovated kitchen perfect for both family living and entertaining. With 5 bedrooms, including one designed as a full home office, the layout offers incredible flexibility. The palatial primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a spacious flex-space ideal for exercise, a library, or a second office. The rear gardens are equally impressive, with a redwood grove adorned with cafe lights creating a magical outdoor setting. Children will love the cul-de-sac setting, while neighbors enjoy regular community gatherings. A rare blend of elegance, comfort, and connection this home is a serene respite from the daily buzz of Silicon Valley. Make it your personal palace on Placitas.
