About This Home

As of March 2025

Opportunity abounds in this sought-after North Los Altos neighborhood just over one mile from The Village. Spanning almost one-half level acre, this property is on the market for the first time since 1960 and is ready to remodel into your own personal vision or build new. The home is introduced by a towering oak tree at the center of a sweeping circular driveway. The ranch style home is bright and light with 3 bedrooms and 3 baths plus a sunroom and small office. Hardwood floors finish most rooms and vaulted, beamed and paneled ceilings highlight the main living areas. Vintage appointments in the kitchen and baths recall the home's treasured heritage, and outside a sparkling pool and two-room cabana highlight the wraparound grounds, which include numerous fruit trees and raised vegetable beds. This home also has access to excellent Los Altos schools.
