About This Home

MAGICAL OASIS WITH ARCHITECTURAL MASTERPIECES | Nestled on a private drive, this natural paradise crowned by two architecturally spectacular structures is made even more exclusive by its stunning canyon setting. The main house is defined by a cathedral-like gallery that spans the sleeping and gathering wings, while multiple decks overlook the scenic surrounding grounds. Enjoy a stylish remodeled kitchen, plus a serene primary suite remodel with private deck, multiple closets, quartz countertops, and GAIA Picchi luxury floors. The home includes an office/potential 4th bedroom, and studio with full workshop (may convert to bedrooms). Steps lead to a fully functional guesthouse with 2 bedrooms (incl. 1 loft), full bath, fireplace, decks, and gourmet kitchen sharing soaring ceilings with the living room. Joining the two homes is a grand entertaining area with large stone patio, luxurious 40 pool and auto cover, new separate spa, BBQ kitchen, shower, and entertaining terraces. A vibrant forest of oaks, cedars, and rare palms enhances the grounds, which offer an amphitheatre, manzanita xeriscape garden, access to an irrigation aquifer, and private trails into adjacent nature preserves. Max floor area of 12,650 SF; Palo Alto schools (buyer to confirm).
