About this home
Single-family living in sought-after Allied Arts, blocks from downtown Menlo Park and a bike ride to Stanford. One of only two residences on the lot, this light-filled 3 bed, 2 bath + office townhome lives like a house: a private backyard shaded by mature redwood and maple trees, three balconies, and a driveway of its own. Soaring ceilings and skylights brighten the foyer and living room, where a wall of glass opens to a large deck. The remodeled kitchen, with heated floors, and the dining area open to a second balcony overlooking the garden. The spacious primary suite has its own balcony, walk-in closet, bath with soaking tub and separate shower, and an adjoining office ideal for working from home. Built-in bookshelves in living room and office. Two more bedrooms and a full bath suit family, guests, or multigenerational living. Attached 2-car garage and laundry room. Walk to downtown shops, restaurants, cafes, Lyle Park, and the Allied Arts Guild. Top-rated Menlo Park schools.
West Menlo, located between El Camino Real and the Stanford foothills, is a residential and academic-adjacent Menlo Park neighborhood with leafy streets and a low-slung, mid-century feel. The scene concentrates around Santa Cruz Avenue at University Drive, where sidewalk patios, small galleries, and independent boutiques set a polished, walkable rhythm. Community pillars include Kepler’s Books, the Guild Theatre, and Café Borrone, each adding a distinct local cadence. Housing leans to ranch homes, updated Eichler-style lines, and quiet cul-de-sacs. Stanford’s edges and nearby open space shape daily routes for walking and cycling. Evenings stay calm, with most motion flowing toward downtown Menlo Park.
