SF Peninsula Real Estate Guru

Yesterday, I saw two listings in west Menlo Park…..

The “Mini” priced at $895,000 and the “Hummer” priced at $4,249,000.

895 Partridge Ave., Menlo Park is priced at $895,000 and located in a desirable west menlo neighborhood named Allied Arts. Allied Arts has many homes originally built in the 30s on narrow deep lots. Allied Arts is home to the Allied Arts Guild and is close to both downtown Menlo Park and Palo Alto. One can easily get to Stanford Shopping Center, Medical Center and the University by crossing the San Francisquito Creek along San Mateo Drive.

This property is a re-done cottage of approx. 900 square feet containing 2 bedrooms and 1 bath.

It is located on a “flag lot” which is typical in Allied Arts. Many new homes have been built in Allied Arts over the past 10 years with this kind of front back configuration - they are technically 2 lot condominium sub-divisions.

This property is listed by Gregg Ann Herren of The Abigail Company.

720 Hobart St. is priced at $4,249,000 and is located in prime west menlo. Prime west menlo typically has 1/4 acre to 1/2 acre lots. Most homes in the area were built right after WWII though over the past 10 years many large newer homes like this one have been built. West menlo offers proximity to Stanford and downtown Menlo Park as well as easy walking distance to Oak Knoll Elementary and Hillview Middle School.

This home is brand new nad has 6 bedrooms, 5.5 baths, and contains 4600 square feet of living space. The lot is 10,710 square feet.

This is a beautiful home on 3 levels - one underground.
