About this home

This home presents a rare opportunity in the highly sought-after Allied Arts neighborhood. It is a short stroll to downtown Menlo Park with its wonderful shops, restaurants, grocery stores, and train station, and also to downtown Palo Alto and the Stanford shopping center. The area has award-winning Menlo Park schools, Stanford University, and easy access to numerous Silicon Valley businesses. The charming single-level home has a lovely living room with fireplace, garden views, and gleaming hardwood floors. The patio leads to a yard bordered with mature shade trees. The home could be refreshed, expanded, or rebuilt and makes for an ideal site to build your dream home in the future. Buyers are encouraged to do their own investigation with the City of Menlo Park Planning Dept regarding what can be built on the lot. Check out the three preliminary design sketches for an ADU (located in the disclosure package, MLS photos or property website). This special property has incredible potential!
