Impressive curb appeal, fresh updates, and a flexible layout define this classic Barron Park home, positioned on a creekside lot with a design for indoor/outdoor living. Built in 2010 and newly painted inside and out, the home spans two levels with 3 bedrooms, an office, and 3 full baths, along with a detached studio with full bath, ideal for guests or remote work needs.
Classic architectural elements include ebony shutters, a red tile roof, and a welcoming path leading to a sheltered entry with keyless access. The foyer introduces honed natural stone floors, crown moldings, and recessed lighting that extends throughout the main level with a seamless flow around a central open kitchen. The kitchen is finished with white cabinetry, exotic granite and onyx surfaces, and high-end appliances, including a Thermador gas cooktop with pot filler and a built-in wine cooler on the island. Built-in cabinetry in the dining room accommodates additional wine and entertaining needs for the true enthusiast. A full bath and dedicated office with extensive built-ins and private outside entrance complete the main level.
Upstairs are three bedrooms, each with an organized closet, one with en suite bath, and another with direct access to the dual-entry hall bath featuring a large shower and jetted tub. Two of the bedrooms share a rear balcony for fresh air enjoyment. Adding to the accommodations is the detached studio, accessed via a private side path and complete with kitchenette, bath with shower, and a French door opening to a private deck that connects to the main deck.
The spacious main deck spans the home and overlooks the seasonal creek. At one end, an outdoor kitchen includes a built-in grill, cooktop, elevated bar seating, and circular table with fire pit. Part of the desirable Barron Park community, this close-in location is less than one-half mile from Bol Park and near hidden bike paths to Stanford and acclaimed Palo Alto schools – a wonderful home in a wonderful setting.
