A private lane in the heart of Atherton the country's most exclusive ZIP code is the setting for this property that awaits your vision for the future. At one time a glamorous country estate with a backdrop of Canary palms, the home boasts a pool, spa, and tennis court on exceptionally private grounds of just over one acre. A gated pedestrian entrance opens to magical gardens with manicured boxwood and flagstones embedded in ground coverings and leads past a signature fountain. White roses enhance the setting while tall hedges, sculpted with arched openings, provide added privacy and an enchanting verdant entrance from the driveway. The beauty of it all recalls an English country garden. Inside the one-story home, custom wallcoverings, crown moldings, and plantation shutters in some rooms evoke time-honored classic elegance.
