About This Home
As of May 2026Tucked away at the end of a private lane in Palo Alto's Community Center neighborhood, this home offers a great mix of privacy, comfort, and easy living. Surrounded by mature trees and beautiful landscaping, it feels peaceful and tucked away from it all. Inside, the open layout is filled with natural light, beautiful hardwood floors and updated lighting throughout. The living room is anchored by a striking stone fireplace and flows seamlessly into a well-appointed kitchen with stainless steel appliances and soapstone countertops, perfect for everyday living and entertaining. Just off the living room, a charming patio creates an easy indoor-outdoor connection. The primary suite is a relaxing retreat, featuring a generous walk-in closet and a spa-like bathroom. Nearby, the family room stands out with its high ceilings and sliding glass doors that open to the spacious backyard. Out back, you'll find a sunny, private yard with a lush lawn and patio, ideal for relaxing, hosting, or just enjoying the Palo Alto weather. All of this just minutes from the shops and restaurants on University Avenue and top-rated schools. With its central location, tree-lined streets and abundance of amenities, the Community Center neighborhood remains one of Palo Alto's most desirable places to call home.
