Japanese inspired design and sweeping mountain and bay views define this thoughtfully crafted hilltop estate. Privately positioned to capture vistas of the Santa Cruz Mountains, Palo Alto hills, and the San Francisco Bay, this home blends natural materials with timeless architectural details. Rich woods, natural stone, and floor to ceiling windows create a seamless indoor-outdoor connection throughout. Authentic design elements, including Shoji screens, wood lattice ceilings, a traditional tokonoma, and materials imported from Japan, bring warmth and character to the home. Professionally designed gardens offer a series of Zen inspired outdoor spaces that complement the surrounding landscape. Built with exceptional attention to detail, the home includes steel rod structural reinforcement, radiant heating, Tesla backup batteries, and comprehensive wiring for security and connectivity. Designed for comfortable single level living, the main floor features the primary suite, family room, offices, and guest bedroom. Conveniently located near private clubs, trail systems, top rated Palo Altos schools, and the shops and dining of Los Altos Village. This custom home has been lovingly cared for by its original owners and is ready for new residents to create lasting memories.
