Classic and timeless in Southgate, just blocks to Stanford University, this home presents circa 1931 Tudor style combined with fresh updates for today’s living. Manicured gardens with flowering pink and white roses beyond a brick walkway define a welcoming entrance. Inside, newly painted interiors and beautiful hardwood floors extend throughout, and mahogany doors in some rooms recall the home’s heritage. A spacious living room with fireplace and formal dining room give way to a remodeled eat-in kitchen, and a bedroom and full bath round out the main level. Upstairs, there are two additional bedrooms and a bath plus there is a large, detached studio with bath perfect for today’s work-from-home needs or added living quarters. Tying it all together are an inviting brick patio and lush foliage. Adding the finishing touch is access to acclaimed Palo Alto schools.
