What's special

Tucked away at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac in Green Gables, this beautifully updated home blends timeless charm with thoughtful modern enhancements. Nearly every aspect of the property has been refreshed, creating a bright, welcoming ambiance throughout, from the refinished interiors and stylishly remodeled kitchen to the updated bathrooms and inviting living spaces designed for both comfort and everyday living. The living room centers around a fireplace that adds warmth and character, while four bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests, or work-from-home needs. Outside, the serene backyard is anchored by a majestic shade tree, offering a tranquil setting for relaxation or entertaining. All of this enjoys an exceptional location close to parks, shopping, dining, University Avenue, and convenient commute routes, along with access to acclaimed schools including Duveneck Elementary, Greene Middle, and Palo Alto High (buyer to verify eligibility).
