About This Home

As of April 2025

Capturing the essence of Portola Valleys natural beauty, this home is a serene retreat with sweeping Windy Hill views from approximately 2.76 acres. Designed with an organic aesthetic that harmonizes with its surroundings, the main residence features a tremendous great room with soaring ceilings with openings to adjoining spaces. The entire living area is oriented toward the views, opening through a wall of glass to a spacious deck designed for outdoor living. Crushed stone paths encircle the grounds, leading to a large patio, a freestanding spa, and an arbor-covered dining lounge. The main home includes two generously sized bedrooms, each with a beautifully appointed en-suite bath. An Accessory Dwelling Unit with both interior and exterior access completes the property, positioned above the two-car garage. There is potential to convert the garage into additional living space (buyer to confirm), as there is also a detached garage with an adjoining heated workshop for further flexibility. Solar-powered electricity with two Powerwall backup batteries adds to the home's appeal. Located in central Portola Valley with access to top-rated schools, this property offers a rare combination of views, natural beauty, and tranquility.
