The Allied Arts neighborhood of Menlo Park provides the setting for this delightful cottage-style home offering light-filled interiors and a modern floorplan. Preceded by a blooming garden entrance, this home is stylishly appointed with hardwood floors and woodwork throughout. A soaring cathedral ceiling crowns the great room at the heart of the home featuring a fireplace, outdoor access, and a chef's kitchen with appliances from Wolf, Bosch, and Sub-Zero. Accommodations include 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, including a detached studio with its own kitchenette. A verdant oasis awaits in the backyard, where ample patio space is surrounded by lush foliage including maples, roses, rhododendrons, and gorgeous wisteria vines. Find yourself within walking distance of multiple parks, a short drive from both downtown Menlo Park and Palo Alto, and minutes from Stanford University. Plus, children may attend top-ranked Menlo Park schools (buyer to verify eligibility).
