Located in the heart of prestigious Old Palo Alto, this stunning California farmhouse, built just five years ago, offers luxurious living across three levels. The home's impressive curb appeal blends beautifully into this neighborhood of architecturally significant homes. Gabled rooflines extend outward across a detailed cross-braced railing design that serves as the upper-level balcony. Inside, white oaks floors unify the entire floor plan, complemented by ultra-smooth walls & recessed lighting throughout. Formal living & dining rooms await for stylish entertaining, with service from a customized wine cellar. A tremendous great room unfolds at the rear of the home for everyday living & dining, extending from a superb modern kitchen designed in a combination of sleek natural wood grain & rich charcoal-gray cabinetry, high-end appliances, & countertops. Retractable stacking glass doors open the great room fully to a covered rear dining lounge with a wet bar & adjoining Connecticut bluestone terrace with a fire pit & barbeque kitchen complete with pizza oven. Located just over one mile from University Avenue's shops & restaurants & within the excellent Palo Alto school district, this home offers an exceptional lifestyle in one of Silicon Valley's most coveted neighborhoods.
