Situated on a desirable street in the heart of Atherton, the country's most exclusive ZIP code, this property awaits a vision for the future. Once a glamorous estate with resort-like grounds, the circa 1928 home retains its vintage architectural details today and awaits restoration or a new beginning. The tone of Mediterranean elegance begins with a tiled roof, wood-paneled front door featuring a grilled "speak-easy" window, and wrought iron railings on the staircases. The expansive, fully level lot spanning more than one acre also presents an enticing opportunity for new construction in this prestigious location with proximity to many magnificent estate properties.

Within the two-story main residence, time-honored classic details resonate throughout with patterned wallcoverings, original hardwood and tile floors, a rock crystal chandelier in the formal dining room, and a focal point carved stone fireplace in the grand living room. The kitchen is vintage with its tiled counters and appliances from an earlier era and a sun room opens to the rear grounds. Completing the main level are a den, a generously sized bedroom with an adjacent bath, a half-bath, and a laundry room with steps leading down to the partial basement. The upper level reveals a bedroom suite, a wood-paneled office, a large bedroom with an adjoining office, and a bath.

Encompassing approximately 1.136 acres, the grounds boast a mid-century style pool cabana with wet bar, elevated fireplace, floor-to-ceiling wall of glass, and a classic checkerboard patterned floor. A covered lounge, along with a changing room and full bath, is located at the opposite end of the pool. Additionally, there is a multi-room apartment with kitchen and bath situated above the detached 2-car garage.

Whether embarking on a restoration journey or realizing a dream for the future, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
