Located just blocks from the heart of downtown Palo Alto, this classic Queen Anne-style home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of the city’s architectural history. Built circa 1904 this home retains its original exterior detailing, including the distinctive fish-scale shingles above the front bay window and a glass-enclosed front porch that nods to its early 20th-century heritage.

Inside, respectful updates have been thoughtfully integrated to enhance livability while honoring the home’s character. Period charm remains evident in the wainscoting, pocket doors, bay window, and built-in glass-front china cabinet, while modern touches include wood-style luxury vinyl flooring, updated lighting, remodeled bathrooms, and a refreshed kitchen with cherry-toned cabinetry, granite counters, and stainless steel appliances. Three bedrooms and three full baths are arranged over two levels, including a primary suite upstairs with an updated en suite bath.

Set on an extra-deep lot, the home offers off-street driveway parking for multiple cars. With its ideal location just two blocks from Whole Foods and four blocks to University Avenue, access to shops, cafés, Stanford University, and top-rated Palo Alto schools is effortless. Steeped in history and updated for today, this is a home that honors the past while embracing the future – all in one of Palo Alto’s most coveted neighborhoods.
