Nestled in the heart of College Terrace just moments from Stanford University and the shops, restaurants, and Caltrain station along California Avenue, this charming home blends a century of Palo Alto character with everyday comfort for modern living. A welcoming covered front porch opens to bright interiors with hardwood floors, a fireplace anchors the inviting living room, and the kitchen features granite countertops while flowing easily to the dining room. Three bedrooms provide flexible accommodations, including one that is ideal as a home office. Outside, the peaceful backyard offers a level lawn, patio, and a detached studio perfect for a variety of uses. All of this, just minutes from parks, downtown Palo Alto, and everything the area has to offer, plus access to acclaimed schools including Escondido Elementary, Greene Middle, and Palo Alto High (buyer to verify eligibility).
