    FEATURES

    In highly sought-after west Atherton, this mid-century modern home presents an excellent opportunity for development of a dream estate. Situated on a slightly elevated 1.10-acre lot with mature landscaping that provides privacy, the property offers expansive, level space with a gently sloping perimeter on the eastern edge. The site offers stunning views of the East Bay hills as well as glimpses of the San Francisco Bay, which would be further enhanced from a second story on a new estate home.

    The existing home is a 1,965-square-foot, single-level residence with 4 bedrooms and 2 baths.

    The potential for development is significant, with a Maximum Floor Area  of 8,625 square feet for the main residence and up to 1,320 square feet accessory structure (per planning study; buyer to confirm).

    The property is located within the prestigious Las Lomitas School District and is just minutes from Stanford University, Silicon Valley tech and venture capital hubs, and conveniently positioned between two international airports. This is a rare opportunity in a prime location, perfect for creating a dream estate.
