Menlo Park Contemporary
Set on a lot of more than .27 acres in Central Menlo, a short stroll from downtown, this beautiful custom home will offer timeless luxury blended with the best of modern sustainability. With an anticipated construction start of Spring 2021, this luxury residence is nearly entirely energy self-sustainable, and features solar panels, a circulating hot water system, 13 separate heating/cooling zones, air filtration, and highly insulated walls for year-round temperature control.
Designed by Studio S Squared Architecture, Inc. and an outstanding local engineering team, this light-filled home features a flexible floor plan designed specifically for multi-generational living, remote working, and home entertaining. With multiple gathering spaces perfect for entertaining, the ground floor opens out to a spacious backyard with ample room for both soft play areas and a generous pool and spa. The kitchen overlooks an open dining and family room, which connects to a generous covered patio through a disappearing wall of glass.
Offering 7 bedrooms, 8.5 bathrooms, and over 6,590 square feet of living space spread over 3 levels, this home is ideally suited for the active, eco-conscious large family. A ground level ADU is perfect for a parent, older child, or additional income, or can be used as part of the main residence. Topping it all off is a location within walking distance from downtown Menlo Park, with top-ranked public and private schools nearby.
The home is currently under construction with an expected completion date of Fall 2023.
