Proudly taking its place amongst the eye-catching estates lining prestigious University Avenue, this stately Tudor residence is a part of Palo Alto history. Built in 1925 and lovingly maintained, the 5-bedroom, 3.5 bathroom home is a treasure trove of period details, including original glass and ornate brass doorknobs throughout, tall casement windows, slender wrought-iron chandeliers, and an exquisite custom-tiled fireplace. A reminder of the lavish use of elegant materials in an earlier era, the baths feature original subway tile and marble slap appointments. The enduring grace of the design is reflected by the flowing arrangement of the light-filled formal and informal rooms, still perfect for the indoor/outdoor lifestyle after nearly 100 years. Abundant French doors open from the timbered-grounds of over half an acre, where vast level lawns and glades of mature trees provide flexible options for quiet retreats or grand entertaining. A vintage log-cabin style playhou8se occupies its own charming garden nook. Completing the appeal of this exceptional home are top-rated Palo Alto schools plus close proximity to commute routes and downtown Palo Alto.
