Remarks

Completed in 2009 with a distinctive contemporary, natural style, this custom-built home stands as a testament to thoughtful design, unparalleled comfort, & superb use of the knoll-top setting. Positioned on a private lane off the main road, the three-level floor plan maximizes the breathtaking views of western hills & Windy Hill by situating the main living areas & primary suite on the top floor with three additional bedrooms & a generous family room on the second floor. Full-size decks extend from each level, including direct access from each of the three 2nd floor bedrooms, & the primary suite has a private balcony, & a separate balcony which extends from the primary suite. The living areas are open & flowing, further enhanced by retractable stacking glass doors. Located on approx. 0.77 acres, this property offers both tranquility & convenience, with a close-in location just minutes from Ladera Shopping Center. It is a 3 minute walk to the Alpine Inn (Rossotti's) and a 5 minute walk to the incredible Arastradero Preserve, a mecca for mountain bikers, runners, & hikers. The home is located within the excellent Palo Alto school district, making this a rare & coveted blend of architectural sophistication, contemporary luxury, rural tranquility, & outstanding location.
