1015 Mountain Home Road,
Woodside
This incomparable property is a tour de force of contemporary styling with many rooms enjoying signature solarium glass walls and glorious views. A recent and extensive renovation inside and out transformed the home into a remarkably chic and sophisticated estate on just over 3 acres. There is a tremendous sense of volume throughout created by towering ceilings, entire walls of glass, and subtle level variations between rooms. Every inch has been beautifully rendered with the highest quality and craftsmanship plus behind-the-scenes amenities have been added or upgraded for security, automation, 50-cell solar power, 100kW dual-powered backup generator, and fire suppression.
The grounds are equally transformed into stunning venues for outdoor living with a pool, spa, bocce court, and barbecue kitchen. Located on Woodside’s premier corridor, this extraordinary property is just two miles to the center of town, close to Sand Hill Road venture capital centers and Stanford University, and just 25 minutes to an international airport.
