Property is move-in ready.
Built in 2007, the property is approximately 17-19 years old, placing it firmly in the 'Good' category. The home is well-maintained and move-in ready, featuring high-end Brazilian cherry floors and a spacious, functional kitchen with premium finishes that remain in great condition despite being from the original construction era.
High School: Palo Alto High School (9/10).
Situated in one of Silicon Valley's most prestigious neighborhoods, the property offers unparalleled proximity to Stanford University, downtown University Avenue, and top-rated Palo Alto schools.
Spanning over 5,500 square feet, this estate includes high-end features such as a tiered-seating theater, a temperature-controlled wine cellar, and a primary suite with three customized couture closets.
For a luxury estate of this magnitude and price point, the detached one-car garage and carport may be considered inadequate for buyers with multiple vehicles.
The 10,000-square-foot lot is relatively modest for a home of 5,540 square feet, potentially limiting the amount of expansive private yard space available for outdoor recreation.
Classic design and substantial scale define this Old Palo Alto three-story estate. Brazilian cherry floors, curated lighting, and well-proportioned formal rooms are complemented by a spacious kitchen and family room combination designed for everyday living. The home has 5 bedrooms and 4 baths, including a luxurious upstairs primary suite with three customized couture closets, plus main and lower level bedrooms. The lower level also has a large recreation room with space for fitness, a theater with tiered seating, and a temperature-controlled wine cellar. Outdoor living features a covered terrace, barbecue center, and beautifully landscaped gardens in a private setting. Additional highlights include two laundry rooms, closet organizers throughout, and a detached 1-car garage and carport. Close proximity to downtown University Ave, Stanford, and excellent Palo Alto schools, including Walter Hays Elementary.
