About this home

Welcome to this picture-perfect 3 bedroom PLUS office home in the sought-after Baywood Knolls neighborhood with a detached two-car garage. The home begins with a welcoming covered front porch. In this bright, light, and remodeled home, the living, dining, and kitchen flow seamlessly. A few enhancements include freshly painted interiors, refinished hardwood floors, stylish window shutters, and a completely revamped all-white kitchen. The dining room french doors open to a beautifully landscaped lawn, deck, flowering gardens, and lots of space for play and entertaining. Catering to the demands of modern remote work is a detached well-appointed studio/office with its own patio. The primary bedroom has an en suite bath. The other two bedrooms are served by a hallway bath with newly refinished tile surfaces, new vanity, tub & shower. The finishing touch is its close location to the acclaimed Baywood Elementary School and Aragon High School & its walkability to downtown San Mateo.
