The updated kitchen shines with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, complemented by a refreshed bathroom. Rich in charm, the home also showcases a spacious living room anchored by a cozy gas fireplace, along with a formal dining room highlighted by the original built-in china cabinet. Step outside to enjoy a newly stained deck perfect for entertaining, a welcoming patio with a gas firepit, a jacuzzi, and a sun-filled backyard with lemon, orange, and peach trees, ideal for relaxing or gathering with friends and family. Outstanding location with close proximity to Caltrain, downtown Palo Alto and Menlo Park, Hwy 101, and Stanford University.
