Stunning New Construction in Central Menlo Park

Sophisticated modern design, inspired technology, and light-filled spaces are the hallmarks of this newly completed residence. The refined finishes and neutral palette of the public spaces are grounded by elegant wide-plank oak flooring found on all three levels. The tranquility of the living area is subtly reinforced by the reflection of the sleek linear fireplace on the polished stone of the raised hearth anchoring the space. The ten-foot-high ceiling, seven-foot divided-light windows, subtle recessed low-voltage light, and elegant circular chandelier in the adjoining dining area reinforce the warmth of this inviting space.

Inspired kitchen design centers on a 17-foot-long island accented by 5 dramatic globe pendants. The rear wall of this space opens to an equally inviting covered terrace through a five-panel folding door system. Sleek Italian cabinetry provides inspired storage solutions and creates a wonderful setting for the top-of-the-line appliances, including a 48” Wolf range with double ovens, 6 burners and an integrated griddle, Sub-Zero designer series refrigerator/freezer, Wolf built-in microwave drawer, 2 Miele dishwashers flanking the extra-deep Franke sink, and a Miele self-closing under-counter wine refrigerator. An adjoining breakfast nook completes this space.

This level also features an office, a large bedroom opening to the rear lawn, a full bathroom, an exquisite powder room, and a wall of mudroom cabinetry opposite the door to the attached two-car garage. An elegant oak staircase accented by a beautifully designed linear railing provides access to the upper and lower levels.

The thoughtful use of 10-foot ceilings, oversized windows, and recessed lighting continues upstairs in all four bedrooms. The primary suite benefits from a private terrace, custom-built walk-in closet, and spa-like bathroom. This wonderful retreat has a freestanding soaking tub with a floor-mount tub filler, shower with colossal rain head, and vanity cabinetry with clever toe-kick lighting triggered by an automatic motion sensor. Two more bathrooms serve this level, as does one of the home’s two laundry rooms fitted with an Electrolux washer and dryer, extensive cabinetry, and a utility sink set in a broad countertop perfect for folding.

The lower level features a jaw-dropping recreation room and adjoining workout area. For entertaining with ease, the adjoining wet bar has been fitted with a Sub-Zero under-counter refrigerator with an ice maker, Miele 18” dishwasher, and sculptural glass-walled 750-bottle wine cellar. This level also provides an expansive sixth bedroom suite, second laundry room with Electrolux washer and dryer, powder room, and a mechanical room. A beckoning terrace and three oversized lightwells provide abundant natural light throughout the level.

Outside, the inspired design continues with a covered terrace that is perfect for after-dinner conversation with four flush-mount infrared ceiling heaters. Speakers for the home’s integrated audio system also extend to this space. A wide expanse of lush lawn, stone-tile pathways, and extensive landscape lighting accent the sylvan setting beneath the towering canopy of a neighboring oak tree.

The home also features state-of-the-art technology designed to make the owner’s life both easy and efficient. The systems include the following:

• Tesla Solar Roof (with the future addition 2 Tesla Powerwalls the home could become energy independent)
• Atherton Fiber service (upgradable to 10Gbps with dedicated private lines available)
• 3-zone Heat Pump System with Nest Learning Thermostats
• IPORT + iPad whole home app-based control system
• 2 EV charging stations
• CAT6 wiring to primary rooms
• 2 Navien tankless water heater configured in tandem
• Denon HEOS wireless speaker system to the primary rooms and covered terrace
