Situated on a prime corner lot in Los Altos and shaded by mature trees, this impressively updated home has everything you’re seeking-including a pool and a casita. Just past the slate-covered front steps is the front room, which has a fireplace and gleaming hardwood floors that continue through the rest of the home.

A large peninsula with seating for four is a focal point of the recently remodeled kitchen, which features quartz counters, stainless steel appliances and new espresso colored cabinets. A long bar area with a wine refrigerator makes entertaining in the living or dining room a breeze. Step down from the kitchen and enter the light, airy living room with vaulted ceilings, a skylight, and wall-to-wall windows overlooking a sparkling pool. Two of the home’s bedrooms share an updated bathroom, while the master bedroom has an en suite bathroom and a sliding door to the back yard. Both bathrooms have been recently updated, one with travertine and the other with porcelain tile and a wall-mounted dual vanity.

The attached two-car garage with new epoxy flooring has lots of storage, laundry hookups and direct access to the home, as well as to the casita. Perfect for a college student at nearby CSULB, guest quarters, an art studio or pool house, the casita has its own bathroom and kitchenette plus private access through a side gate. Bamboo floors, lots of windows and a pool view give it a tropical feeling. The recently re-plastered pool is surrounded by a large, open patio that’s perfect for entertaining or relaxing, as well as palm trees and inviting landscaping. This home is situated in the heart of the desirable Los Altos neighborhood and is walking distance to award-winning Minnie Gant Elementary School as well as shops & restaurants.
