The story
The Chartwell at 38 3rd Street sits at the edge of Downtown Los Altos' Triangle, home to more than 150 shops, restaurants, cafes, and boutiques. This select condominium community is centered around a peaceful English-style garden courtyard, with a secure formal lobby, elevator access, and gated underground parking. Residence 204 is a rare find: a spacious, single-level three-bedroom, two-bathroom home with two-car parking and extra storage. Oversized, tree-lined windows fill the residence with natural light and frame lush views of mature trees, creating a quiet, retreat-like feel while having the vitality of Downtown Los Altos just outside your door. The generous, flexible floor plan is move-in ready while offering plenty of opportunity to personalize over time. Three bedrooms provide the space and versatility that are increasingly difficult to find in downtown condominium living. It's a home that offers genuine peace and privacy without sacrificing convenience. And the convenience is exceptional. Shops, restaurants, cafes, and local businesses are within easy reach, along with sidewalk events and community gatherings that give Downtown Los Altos its quintessential small-town character. Start the morning with fresh sourdough from Manresa Bread or your favorite beverage from Coffeebar, both just a short stroll away. Safeway is two blocks away, while Draeger's Market is a six-street, flat, tree-lined location from your front door. With its three-bedroom floor plan, two-car parking, serene garden setting, generous living space, and extraordinary proximity, Residence 204 offers a distinctive opportunity to enjoy the best of Downtown Los Altos close to everything, yet peacefully removed from it all.
