This Historic Landmark Asset represents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity with a List Price of $2,498,998, positioned below the $2,517,682 Fair Market Value by 1%. While the Condition Rating of 5 necessitates a full interior rehab, the massive 17,424 sq ft lot and mature orchard offer unparalleled development potential for ADUs or a private compound. Located near major tech hubs and served by Cumberland Elementary (9/10), the property supports significant forced appreciation. This is a rare, strategic acquisition for Value-Add Investors or Developers.
Property is extensive renovation needed.
This historic landmark is over 50 years old and offered 'As-Is.' The kitchen is severely dated with mid-century tiling and cabinetry, and the single bathroom for a three-bedroom home is inadequate by modern standards. Given the age and 'As-Is' status, the property requires a full interior rehab and likely significant system updates.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 17424, living area = 1100.
Elementary School: Cumberland Elementary School (9/10).
The massive 17,424 sq ft lot is exceptionally rare for Sunnyvale, offering significant flexibility for ADU development, expansion, or creating a private compound in a prime location.
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
The property's status as a City of Sunnyvale Historic Landmark may impose strict limitations on renovations, exterior modifications, and specific development possibilities that buyers must navigate.
With only 1,100 sq ft of living space and a single bathroom, the current configuration is significantly undersized for the $2.5M price point and will likely require substantial investment to modernize.
Unique 2nd Chance prior buyer was unable to complete the purchase through no fault of the property. A truly rare opportunity to own the historic Stowell House & Barn situated on an expansive 17,424± sq. ft. lot in the heart of Sunnyvale, offering exceptional character, magnificent grounds, and remarkable future potential. Washington didnt sleep here but your client can. Imagine estate living reminiscent of the late 1800s on grounds nearly three times the size of many surrounding properties. Potential opportunities may include a pool, pool pavilion, ADU, JDU, gardens, entertaining spaces, or estate expansion (buyer to verify with the City of Sunnyvale).

Rarely does a property of this significance and legacy become available in such a premier Silicon Valley location. Mature trees, fruit trees, and timeless grounds create an extraordinary setting unlike anything else currently on the market. Property sold AS-IS. 4th bedroom has no closet.
