About this home
Located in the heart of Palo Alto's Ventura neighborhood, this property pairs a main residence with a permitted, attached cottage, each with one bedroom and one bath. The kitchen and bathrooms have been fully reimagined, with a center island and breakfast bar anchoring the kitchen. Mini-split systems provide heating and cooling year round. Outside, an inviting garden offers space for outdoor dining, entertaining, or a quiet morning coffee. John Boulware Park sits just down the street, with a recently renovated playground and picnic tables under mature trees. Cafe Yutori is close by on El Camino Real, and the shops, restaurants, cafes, farmers market, and Caltrain station along California Avenue are a short distance away, as are Whole Foods and Stanford University. Highways 101 and 280 are both within easy reach. Nearby schools include Barron Park Elementary, Fletcher Middle, and Gunn High (buyer to verify).

Ventura, located between El Camino Real and Alma Street, is a residential and commercial Palo Alto neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and a Caltrain edge. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around California Avenue at El Camino Real, where sidewalk patios, indie boutiques, and late-day foot traffic set the tempo. Community pillars include the Palo Alto Art Center, the California Theatre, and the weekly California Avenue Farmers’ Market. Housing leans to mid-century ranches, compact bungalows, and small-lot infill, with a few low-rise apartment courts. Greer Park and the Matadero Creek corridor add open space and a green backdrop. Caltrain and bike routes keep daily routines oriented toward the Peninsula commute and local errands.
