Newly built in 2017 in the sought-after Willows neighborhood, this home is picture-perfect inside and out. Professionally landscaped grounds surround the home, complementing the crisp white exterior with verdant lawn and privacy hedges along with a modern walkway of concrete stepping stones bordered by slate grey pebbles. Graceful trees and foliage adorn the fully fenced and sheltered front yard that introduces this special home. A flower box beneath the front window, covered porch, and pergola detail above the garage add designer touches that are classic and timeless. Inside, a contemporary open design unfolds with skylights, extra-wide sliding glass doors to the rear yard, and fine hardwood floors that unify the entire home.

The kitchen is perfectly appointed with Carrara marble-style quartz counters and subway-set grey tile backsplashes. An island provides breakfast bar seating complementing a formal dining area defined by an Olympic rings-style chandelier. Adding to the culinary experience are high-end stainless steel appliances that include a gas range plus second oven and microwave along with a stainless steel apron sink.

The home’s 3 bedrooms are ideally arranged with two bedrooms toward the front of the home served by a luxury bath with encaustic tile floor and tub with overhead shower and partial frameless-glass enclosure. The primary suite is tucked away at the rear of the home with a walk-in closet and sky-lit bath with dual-sink vanity and shower with a combination of tile and book-matched marble. Finishing touches throughout include high-quality glass doorknobs on every room, auto-entry lighting in the bathrooms, and EV charging in the attached 1-car garage, which also includes laundry and an adjoining mud room with half-bath.

Along with great spaces for outdoor living, both in the front and rear yards, this home is close to Willow Oaks Park with playground. The sidewalk-lined streets are also just one mile from downtown University Avenue in Palo Alto and this home has access to excellent Menlo Park schools.
