Description

In the heart of Crescent Park, this stately colonial home offers a rare combination of presence, character, and livability. A column-framed entrance leads to warm interiors that showcase the home's more than century-old heritage, with hardwood floors, detailed millwork, and vintage glass doorknobs throughout. While the architecture reflects a bygone era, the layout feels comfortably in step with life today, featuring grand formal rooms, a cozy fireplace, a chef's kitchen with Viking and Sub-Zero appliances, and five generous bedrooms, four of which have en suite baths. The backyard is just as inviting, with a deck, brick pathways, and wisteria-covered trellises creating a peaceful space to relax or entertain. Additional highlights include air conditioning, a gated driveway, and a detached two-car garage. All of this, just a short stroll from the shops and restaurants of downtown Palo Alto, and close to Stanford University, Caltrain, commute routes, and top-rated Palo Alto schools.
