It would be difficult to imagine a more perfect dichotomy: to be nestled in an ultra-private creekside sanctuary that feels acres and miles away, yet presiding at the center of the universe not far from Sand Hill Road and adjacent to the Stanford Golf Course! Custom built in 1969 near the banks of the San Francisquito Creek, the design is fit for the pages of Architectural Digest with its walls of glass, towering ceilings, and Zen privacy.  Completely hidden from any road, the extraordinary 27,000 sq. ft. lot (.62 Acre) delivers a rare seclusion and affinity with nature. Approach the home through gates and a circular gravel motor court that revolves around a magnificent heritage oak. An organic blend of wood, stone, and glass coalesces as a transitional modern statement. 

From the moment you enter, the integration of home and nature is both soothing and dramatic. Vaulted ceilings soar over 16 feet high, while bold windows capture oak canopies all around. The step-down living room takes on a cinematic quality with a hand-quarried river rock fireplace and tranquil views enjoyed in total privacy. Decks made of premium Ipe wood extend the space outdoors where a trickling creek and native birds are your only soundtrack. The contemporary architectural conception is sure to inspire your most savvy interior design expressions. All the hallmarks that designers look for are present: towering ceilings, grand room sizes, streaming light, and indoor/outdoor view living. The floorplan revolves as a panorama, with treats for the eyes wherever you are. The oversized kitchen/family great room boasts another river rock fireplace, family media room, and tucked-away office. Each chamber delivers excitement and volume with the epic ceiling heights. From the family room, you will enjoy direct access to a newly created yard, inviting youngsters and pets with its synthetic turf and hand-crafted fence system. The family room also has a huge sun deck that overlooks the gentle repose of creek, heritage oaks, and native shrubbery. 

The main level lives as its own domain with the flowing entertaining rooms, plus a private hall containing a nursery/den and the enchanted Primary Suite. Two additional bedrooms downstairs are sequestered beyond custom-built steel barn doors. In the primary suite, the architect tailors vistas on two sides, verdant and pristine beneath 14+ foot ceilings. Organic stone and rock finishes in the Primary Bath remind you that this is a very special location, one capable of transcending the pressures of daily life. Accommodations span 3,070 sq. ft. with flexibility for two bedrooms upstairs and two bedrooms downstairs, plus that perfect home office (with built-in work station) tucked off of the family room. 

Outside, the .62 acres environs inspire the feeling of your own 360-degree compound. The calming approach of the gravel circular motor court makes way for the detached 3-car garage. The current owners have recently installed new solid wood garage doors that play off of the artistry of the front door. Multiple destinations at the front and the rear of the property will cater to everything from gardening and Zen relaxation, to the most festive parties amidst the trees. Treasure the timeless joie de vivre of this pristine land, in many ways still thriving exactly as it was centuries ago...now ensconced in a dynamic world-class stage, from the global financial and tech centers on Sand Hill Road, to the leading intellectual hubs of Stanford and nearby Las Lomitas Schools. A contemporary sanctuary that surely does not come along very often...
