On the market for the first time since its original construction in 1977 and located just two blocks from vibrant University Avenue in Downtown Palo Alto, this exceptional 2 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home has been extensively updated throughout in 2023 to present a turnkey opportunity for its next proud owner. Mature Magnolia trees, a private walkway and classic Tudor facade create a welcoming entrance. Once inside, the practical floor plan, neutral color palette and remarkable design aesthetic are immediately apparent. New European White Oak hardwood floors, a freshly painted interior and perfectly selected lighting and surfaces add designer panache at every turn.

The dining room, an ideal venue to entertain family and friends, makes a dramatic first impression with its picture window flooding the space with natural light. The gourmet kitchen is immediately adjacent and is perfectly arranged for social meal preparation with new stainless steel appliances, ample freshly painted cabinetry, pantry and newly refinished countertops. Just beyond the kitchen, is an inviting and spacious living room with sliding door access to the rear entertaining patio. Fine hardwood floors unify the entire main level of the residence, which includes a remodeled powder bath and entry coat closet.

After ascending the newly carpeted staircase to the upper level of the residence, you will find two bedroom suites, a convenient hall laundry area and linen closet. The primary suite, a true retreat with great natural light, offers generous closet space and a sleek ensuite bath with stall shower, fresh vanity and great storage. A second bedroom suite overlooks the front streetscape and features a wall of closets and remodeled ensuite bath with shower-over-tub.

The large, private rear patio is the perfect space for both entertaining and relaxation. A staircase descends directly from the home to the lower level gated garage. There are two dedicated parking spots, an EV charger and a locked, private storage room ideal for bikes and personal belongings. Distinguishing features include individually controlled radiant heat, double pane windows (2022), wood blinds (2022), new hardwood floors and carpeting (2023), and new stainless steel kitchen appliances (2023).

Modest HOA dues of just $560/month include common area maintenance and insurance as well as all utility expenses except in-unit electricity, television and internet (buyer to verify). 

This impeccably maintained home benefits from top Palo Alto schools - Addison Elementary, Greene Middle School and Palo Alto High School (buyer to verify eligibility and enrollment) - and is in close proximity to Stanford University, Caltrain, commuter routes and the top tech campuses in Silicon Valley.
