LUXURY, PRIVACY, AND A CONVENIENT LOCATION

On a tree-canopied street in sought-after Central Menlo resides this stately 5-bedroom home set on more than six-tenths of an acre. Feelings of warmth and hospitality envelop you from the moment you step through the front door, and incredible spaces both inside and out provide brilliant venues for both grand-scale entertaining and cozy nights at home. Expansive common areas, a chef’s kitchen with highend appliances, a convenient office, and a media room are just a few of the many highpoints this home provides, with over 7,400 square feet of living space adorned with hardwood floors, gorgeous millwork, and 2 stunning, antique French fireplaces both dating to the 19th century. Sprawling, peaceful grounds beckon you with a wood-burning fireplace, lush lawn, pool, spa, and more, with towering redwoods giving shade and privacy. And though you may feel a sense of wonderful seclusion here, you will still be just blocks away from downtown Menlo Park, within walking distance of beautiful parks, and have access to the area’s top public and private schools (buyer to verify eligibility).
