Built in 1910, the main residence may require significant ongoing maintenance or costly infrastructure updates to align its vintage systems with modern efficiency and building standards.
The total square footage is divided between the main house, a basement, and a detached unit; the primary living area of 2,374 sq ft may feel undersized for buyers expecting a large, contiguous modern floor plan at this price point.
In the heart of Old Palo Alto, this distinguished estate offers a rare opportunity to own a property defined by architectural character, extraordinary gardens, and exceptional lifestyle versatility. Featured on the 2025 Gamble Garden Spring Tour, the park-like grounds showcase meandering paths, mature landscaping, curated outdoor rooms, and tranquil spaces designed for both entertaining and quiet retreat. The residence blends timeless craftsmanship with expansive living spaces filled with natural light and serene garden views. A lower-level retreat offers recreation and wellness amenities, including a game area, a built-in bar, a mirrored fitness space, a sauna, and a hot tub. Outdoor living is equally compelling, with a heated Michael Phelps Swim Spa, an infrared sauna, a vegetable garden, and multiple gathering and relaxation spaces. A detached three-car garage includes a private upper-level office or guest quarters with a kitchen and a full bath. An adjacent 7,500 sq ft parcel may also be available, creating the rare potential for a two-parcel legacy estate in one of Palo Alto's most sought-after neighborhoods.
