Opportunity abounds on just over one acre with sweeping views out to the western hills, plus access to acclaimed Palo Alto schools. The one-story home is ready to move in and enjoy today with all new paint, new carpet, new lighting, and updated bathrooms. Alternatively, this is an excellent opportunity to remodel into your own personal vision or to build a new estate home on this vast level land. The open sun-swept meadow at the rear, dotted with trees, provides wonderful space for further development including possible recreational facilities like a pool or tennis court. Adding the finishing touch is the home's east-side close-in peaceful and serene location less than 2 miles from the Los Altos Village and with convenience to Highway 280 for access to all of Silicon Valley and San Francisco. MDA: 15,000 square feet; MFA: 6,000 square feet (for potential new build; per worksheet from town of LAH dated 2/10/2022)
