Remarks

Rarely does a Menlo Park property offer the possibility of a family compound combined with a whole-home renovation. Tucked-away on more than one-half acre gem in sought-after Menlo Oaks, the property features two electronic gated entrances, one leading to the main home and one to the carriage house apartment and guest house. Extensive renovations include new paint, flooring, lighting, bathrooms, and appliances. The one-level main home has 4 bedrooms and 3 baths, while the accessory structures present opportunities for extended family, rental income, and/or remote office needs. Inside, vaulted ceilings, wood floors, and recessed lighting create a bright and stylish ambiance. The public rooms offer versatile living and dining options, and the kitchen has all new stainless-steel appliances. Beautifully landscaped grounds tie it all together. This prime location offers easy access to downtown Menlo Park, Palo Alto, and excellent Menlo Park schools.
