About This Home

As of December 2024

Ideally located in the Willows neighborhood of Menlo Park, this bright airy cottage sits behind blooming greenery, shielded from the outside world. The 3 Bed/1 Bath main residence features a woodburning fireplace, rich hardwood floors, and opens to the private yard from multiple points. An updated kitchen looking out to the patio incorporates a European vibe, with contemporary finishes and stainless appliances. In addition to the main residence there is a detached guest house with walk-in closet and full bath, as well as French doors that open to the landscaped garden, lawn, and patio area. Oversized gates on opposite ends of the home provide plenty of parking, and the option of R.V. storage. Outstanding Menlo Park Schools include Laurel/Encinal Elementary, Hillview Middle, and Menlo Atherton High.
