In sought-after Lindenwood, nearly one acre is the setting for this home of remarkable size with exciting opportunity for future transformation. The home spans approximately 3,809 square feet with 6 bedrooms thoughtfully arranged across two levels. Living areas include a gracious formal living room with fireplace, a dining room that opens to the rear grounds, and a large family room also with fireplace. The kitchen, with its bright breakfast area and skylight, anchors the home. Bedrooms are highlighted by a main-level primary suite with a customized private office and outside entrance, plus two adjacent bedrooms; three additional bedrooms are located upstairs. The outdoor setting is equally enticing with a solar-heated pool and spa, fire pit terrace, and expansive lawns that invite recreation and entertaining. Whether enjoyed as it is or envisioned for renovating or building new, this property combines the prestige of a Lindenwood address with a private well for irrigation plus access to excellent Menlo Park schools. The scale of the lot, the lifestyle afforded by the grounds, and the flexibility for the future make this an excellent offering.
