Located in one of Silicon Valleys most desirable residential enclaves, Portola Valley Ranch, amid 350 acres of private open space preserve, this refined contemporary home fully embraces its natural surroundings. Clean architectural lines, sliding glass doors and clerestory windows define the expansive living / dining great room and suffuse it with light. Beautiful Australian eucalyptus flooring throughout the home unifies it with a warm, welcoming aesthetic. Custom cherry cabinetry accentuated by walnut trim in the chef's kitchen and adjacent family room create an inviting setting for cooking while gathering with family and friends. The oversized primary bedroom with a front balcony that extends the length of the room has a marvelous view of mature trees framing the western hills. Two additional bedrooms, both opening to the outdoors, share the bright hall bath. The oversized two car garage includes an EV charger and a storage closet ideal for wine collectors. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in this special community offering a clubhouse, tennis courts, pools, exercise facilities, a vineyard, a playground and hiking trails, this serene retreat feels miles away but is conveniently located just minutes from highway 280 and Stanford University. Dont miss it!
