This exceptional new home in the heart of desirable Old Palo Alto was designed by architect Stephen Pogue and built by locally-renowned builders R & M Properties. Rich design elements include high ceilings, handsome moldings and wainscoting, beautiful windows, lustrous stone countertops, and attractive distressed oak floors. Double entrances to living and dining rooms are accented by pretty lead-glass transom windows. Natural light streaming through the attractive large windows, skylights and the dramatic glass wall in the family room and generous rooms combine to create an open airy ambiance. Custom cabinetry, some with glass doors, in every room is thoughtfully designed to accommodate electronic components, books and objets d' art. There are five bedrooms, each with its own nicely appointed bathroom, and two bedrooms have fun lofts for children’s play space. Extra family room with mini-“kitchen” offers flexible space for entertaining, crafts, pool table and more. In addition there is a home office, specially built home theatre room, and room prepped for wine storage.

 

Thirty five miles south of San Francisco and fourteen miles north of San Jose, Palo Alto is one of Santa Clara County's most prestigious addresses. Home to many Silicon Valley companies and Stanford University, Palo Alto residents enjoy all that a university town offers and reflects the vibrancy and texture of a 100+ year old city entrenched in a sense of community and appreciation of the diversity of its population of over 60,000 people.

Tree-lined streets, pride of ownership throughout beautiful neighborhoods, an award-winning public school system, 30 city parks, many cultural and recreational venues, a colorful downtown, plus the popular Stanford Shopping Center, and incredible moderate climate.... all reasons Palo Alto residential real estate is hard to come by. For many decades demand has out-paced supply for the buyers desiring to live in this stimulating community. The city encompasses an area of approximately twenty-six square miles, of which one third is open space.
