The story
A Masterwork of Steel, Glass, and Soul. Every so often, a home comes along that doesn't just sit on a lot, but breathes with it. Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the Palm House is an architectural fusion of vertical cedar and expansive windows, creating a seamless dialogue between modern design and the lush, creek-side landscape it inhabits. The heart of the residence is the expansive great room, where dramatic airplane hangar doors retract to merge the interior with the natural canopy outdoors. Luxury is felt in every detail; the polished cement and white oak radiant heat floors, limestone surfaced fireplace, chefs kitchen with Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, jewel box powder room, and the copper and velvet accented garage turned speakeasy. A moss wall backs the sculptural floating staircase leading to a den and 5 ensuite bedrooms each with stunning views. The sophisticated primary suite includes a private office and secluded terrace. Outside, the property extends to the creek bed with pristine green views. Ipe decking, a custom pergola, and an outdoor kitchen create a harmonious oasis for entertaining. The patio offers a peaceful respite to recharge, surrounded by nature. The vibrant energy of Palo Alto's downtown is just minutes away.
