Nestled in one of the Peninsula’s most sought-after neighborhoods, this beautifully updated 1924 home is a classic example of San Mateo Park architecture. Offering 3,200 +/- sq. ft. of light-filled living space on a sprawling ¼-acre corner lot, this residence seamlessly blends timeless elegance with modern convenience.
Set back from the street, the home welcomes you with impeccable curb appeal—lush landscaping, a manicured lawn, and a grand front patio. A striking glass-paneled front door, framed by large original windows and flanked by elegant piers, creates a stunning first impression, filling the entryway with natural light and offering a glimpse of the warmth and charm inside.
The main level boasts a spacious and inviting living room with a fireplace and French doors that open into an elegant formal dining room—ideal for entertaining. The bright and airy atmosphere is enhanced by large original windows that bathe the space in natural light while mature trees and ivy-covered fences provide privacy. The spacious eat-in kitchen offers direct outdoor access, while multiple doors lead to the expansive back deck, seamlessly integrating indoor and outdoor living. Whether dining al fresco or enjoying a quiet evening in the hot tub, the backyard serves as an extension of the home’s living space, perfect for spring, summer, and fall gatherings.
Two generously sized bedrooms and a beautifully updated full bath, complete with a soaking tub and glass-enclosed walk-in shower, provide comfort and style. A large laundry room and a convenient half-bath complete the main level. The primary suite can be set up so the second room is a private lounge, a home office, or a fifth bedroom.
The upper level features two bright and airy bedrooms, along with an additional full bath. Additionally, a spacious family room with an attached office over the garage offers a versatile retreat, slightly set apart from the rest of the home, making it an ideal space for kids to gather with friends without disrupting the main living areas. Alternatively, it could serve as a private lounge, gym, or home office. Additionally, with existing plumbing in place, the family room presents an opportunity to create a large ensuite.
A delightful original feature, the built-in writing desk in the living room, adds to the home’s unique character. A charming historical note—pages 25-27 of the permit history include a letter from a little girl who lived in the home in 1964, requesting the mayor’s permission to keep a pet goat. One can imagine her doing her homework at this very desk, connecting past and present in this special home.
The serene backyard is an entertainer’s dream, featuring a brand new, large deck, a lush lawn, and a private hot tub, all surrounded by mature hedges and vibrant gardens. An attached two-car garage completes this stunning residence.
Located in the heart of San Mateo Park, this exceptional home offers an unparalleled combination of historic charm and modern living, just moments from top-rated schools, boutique shopping, and fine dining.
