Built in 2009, this exceptional home offers the very best of Los Altos living. Graceful arched entryways, high ceilings, bright and airy open kitchen/family room and rich hardwood floors create a warm, timeless ambiance reminiscent of a classic Carmel villa. The open-concept floor plan centers around a spacious kitchen featuring a large serpentine island, state-of-the-art appliances and seamless flow into the family room w/high ceilings, transom windows, gas fireplace, and custom cabinetry. Two sets of sliding glass doors extend the living space to a private stone patio, where low-maintenance landscaping, meandering paths, and raised garden planter beds create a tranquil outdoor retreat. High ceilings and dual sliding glass doors provide welcome sunshine in the primary suite for luxurious living. Privately situated at the rear of the property is the fully equipped detached guest cottage w/electric range, microwave, and large refrigerator, full bath and energy-efficient ductless mini-split heating and air conditioning system for comfort. The cottage enjoys convenient access from the side yard while maintaining privacy from the main residence. Situated blocks from coveted downtown, the Hillview community Center and Main library w/Los Altos schools.
