About this home

This stunningly remodeled, move-in ready, 4 bedroom home exceeds all your expectations for spacious living and modern amenities. The hub and highlight of this home is the chef's kitchen boasting contemporary cabinets and counters, large island with prep sink, and an impressive stainless steel gas range, grill, griddle, and double ovens. The kitchen is adjacent to the large living, dining and family rooms, which are drenched in natural light with floor to ceiling windows reminiscent of the mid-century modern aesthetic. They also open to the tranquil and big backyard, with a large lawn and patio with a built-in fire pit. All 3 remodeled bathrooms are a designer's delight. All the bedrooms are sizable and the 4th bedroom is separate from the others, which makes it ideal as an office or guest room. Inside laundry, an oversized 2 car garage, wood floors, and lush landscaping complete this dream home. Nestled in the desirable and friendly Grant Park neighborhood of Los Altos, this home is close to renowned schools*, vibrant shopping centers, and bustling downtown Los Altos. Woodland Library and Grant Park, just 1 block away, are the community gathering hubs in the neighborhood. Trader Joe's, Lucky's, Starbucks, and Peet's are close by, too!

Pros & Cons

Pros

Extensive Modern Remodel: The property has undergone a 'stunningly remodeled' transformation, offering a 'move-in ready' condition with contemporary finishes throughout, minimizing immediate buyer investment.
Gourmet Chef's Kitchen: Features a high-end 'chef's kitchen' with modern cabinets, large island, prep sink, and professional-grade stainless steel appliances, serving as a central hub for entertaining.
Premium Los Altos Location & Amenities: Situated in the 'desirable and friendly Grant Park neighborhood,' providing proximity to 'renowned schools,' vibrant shopping, downtown Los Altos, and community parks/libraries.

Expansive Outdoor Entertainment Area: Includes a 'tranquil and big backyard' with a 'large lawn and patio with a built-in fire pit,' perfect for outdoor living and entertaining.

Cons

Original Construction Age (1961): While extensively remodeled, the home's original build year of 1961 may raise questions about the condition or updates of underlying systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) not explicitly detailed.
Absence of Mentioned Central Air Conditioning: The description does not specify the presence of a central cooling system, which could be a significant comfort drawback during warmer months, especially for a property at this price point.
Ambiguous High School District: The MLS data lists the high school district as 'Other,' which, despite the description's claim of 'renowned schools,' lacks the specific, named top-tier district information often sought by buyers in Los Altos.
