Storybook charm in the heart of Palo Alto! This elegant and spacious townhouse, on a shady and quiet tree-lined street, is just three blocks to all the wonderful shopping and dining of downtown Palo Alto. Enter through the front gate, down the brick walkway, and into the landscaped front yard. Inside, enjoy bright spaces, thoughtfully designed built-ins and cabinetry, box beam style ceiling moldings, hardwood floors and new carpet. The updated kitchen and dining area faces the sun drenched paver patio with views of a vibrant bougainvillea. The patio also has extra storage and gated access to the common areas, parking (two designated spots plus additional storage) and a heated, crystal blue pool! Upstairs you'll find the large primary suite with double closets and a gorgeous renovated bathroom featuring custom cabinetry and an oversized glass-enclosed shower. The laundry area, a hall bath and an additional guest bedroom complete the upstairs floor plan. In addition to the benefits of being so close to the wonderful downtown Palo Alto area and Stanford campus and mall, Whole Foods and Safeway, the post office and library, Palo Alto Medical Foundation and three movie theaters, this home feeds into top schools, making it a sought after personal residence or investment.
