Extraordinary Home in a Walk-to-Town Location! Innovative and contemporary, this exceptional residence showcases walls of glass, soaring ceilings, and extensive upgrades throughout. Located in the highly sought-after Old Los Altos neighborhood just two blocks from downtown blending cutting-edge design with the ultimate urban lifestyle. Sophisticated interiors & dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows seamlessly connect the indoors to the outdoors. The unique compound-style layout distinguishes this single-family residence, with a series of thoughtfully designed structures & living spaces arranged around a central, gated courtyard on a lot just under one-quarter acre. Multiple outdoor areas provide ideal settings for entertaining, play, or quiet relaxation. A natural flow defines the main level, centered around a signature floating staircase beneath a skylit ceiling. A glass-lined breezeway connects the primary living space to ensuite number four (currently staged as a family room), and then continues to the private ADU/guest house with its own entrance, backyard, & access to gardens featuring a variety of fruit trees. Upstairs in the main residence, three ensuite bedrooms include a luxurious primary suite with two private terraces. Top-rated Los Altos schools including Gardner Bullis.
