Property Description

Exceptional opportunity to remodel, develop, or reimagine a versatile property on a 5,000 square foot lot in one of Palo Alto's most sought-after neighborhoods. Located in College Terrace, this offering presents long-term upside for end users, investors, or those planning their next move in a premier setting. The main residence is a 1-bedroom, 1-bath home with a functional layout, abundant natural light, and classic period character. A large attic provides valuable bonus space for storage or flexible use. A detached ADU with its own bathroom has a history of consistently strong rental performance, offering immediate income potential or flexible living options. The private backyard provides space to create an inviting outdoor retreat. Ideally located just one block from Stanford University, steps to Cameron Park, and moments from the shops and dining along California Avenue. A rare opportunity to own a property with both flexibility and upside in an A+ Palo Alto location.
