Property Description

A rare opportunity to own a home in sought-after Community Center for under $2 million. Tucked into a private setting, this charming property is zoned R1 yet currently configured as two 1-bedroom, 1-bath units, each with updated kitchens and baths featuring classic checkerboard tile. The upstairs features separate living and dining rooms, a spacious bedroom, and large private deck with treetop views. Downstairs, the living room flows into the kitchen for an open, inviting feel. A charming front garden with patio provides additional outdoor space. Shared laundry and two parking spaces add convenience. Just steps away, Rinconada Park offers tennis courts, a pool, playground, and a scenic walk to top-performing Walter Hays Elementary, with the home also served by Greene Middle and Palo Alto High. Easy access to Downtown Palo Alto, Stanford, and Highway 101 provides convenient connections to major tech employers. Strong rental demand and a history of attracting well-qualified tenants enhance its investment potential. Charm and character, a premier neighborhood, and an exceptional price point make this a compelling Palo Alto opportunity.
