Location, Location, Location:Rare Professorville Opportunity! One sign of a neighborhood's desirability is the turnover rate and how many homes are currently for sale. In Palo Alto's historic Professorville neighborhood, there's been only one sale in the $1-2 million range in all of 2010 and there is only a small handful of properties currently available for sale, including 1043 High Street, which happens to be located in one of the most convenient locations of the entire neighborhood. The house is situated near the southwest corner of Professorville, the closest point to Stanford University, within easy walking distance of Palo Alto High School and the Town and Country Shopping Center (three short blocks). In addition to being minutes from Stanford University (a quick bike ride), it is also minutes from downtown Palo Alto, the Stanford Shopping Center and numerous other amenities, including Whole Foods, several parks (El Camino Park, Heritage Park, Johnson Park) and the heavenly Elizabeth Gamble Garden, an indisputable treasure, in more ways than one.Park at the nearby Caltrain station and relax, as you take public transportation to work.Palo Alto and Professorville really need no further introduction and neither does this three-bedroom, two-bathroom single family home, on a standard 5,250 square foot lot, with rear deck and private fenced backyard. This is a vintage 1916 home, awaiting the updating and TLC that its new owners will give it. Contact the listing agent for further information or to arrange a private showing. This house is not currently on the MLS. Principals only at this time, please. Better hurry, as this opportunity may not last long. Information deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Buyers are advised to thoroughly investigate and confirm everything to their complete satisfaction.</description><enclosure url="http://www.ListingProducer.com/Uploads/54/20/5420/63056/Photos/1.jpg" type="image/jpeg" length="30000" /></item><item><title>418 Ives Terrace, Sunnyvale: 2 + Bonus Room (Potential 3rd Bedroom) bed 2 bath, Sold $735,000</title><link>http://www.418Ives.com</link><pubDate>Fri, 30 Apr 2010 22:51:16 GMT</pubDate><description> To navigate the slide show above, simply mouseover the bottom of the photo in the main window and a control panel will appear.

One of the Two Largest LotsStratford GardensRare Opportunity WALKING DISTANCE from the fabulous Sunnyvale Arboretum and Community Center Complex (as well as the Pavlina Plaza Shopping Center), equidistant from Highways 101, 237 and 280, tucked away in the triangle formed by Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road, El Camino Real and Fremont Avenue, the luxury gated community known as Stratford Gardens is a sheltered oasis in the heart of Silicon Valley. In this pleasant, upscale subdivision, where neighbors greet each other as they power walk the gated grounds at night or enjoy a leisurely weekend afternoon at the pool and spa, the turnover has been understandably low. The townhome located at 418 Ives Terrace, nestled in the community’s center, has one of the two largest lots of any property in the entire community of 64 homes: nearly five and a half thousand square feet (5,458, to be precise), fully twice the size of many of its neighbors. A permitted multi-flex bonus room on the upper level (approximately 200 square feet) makes 418 Ives much more than the two-bedroom, two-bathroom townhome that it appears to be on the public record. This well-crafted and spacious bonus room could be used for a wide variety of purposes: home office, children’s playroom, adult game room, entertainment center, third bedroom, guest room . . . or whatever would best suit your needs. You will love the single-family home feeling that this quiet end unit offers, as well as the spacious private backyard, ideal for both relaxing and entertaining.

TAKE YOUR PICK: Walk to the post office, the Rec Center, the library, 99 Ranch Market or hike along the San Francisco Bay. All within minutes from your doorstep, at this handsome four-bedroom, three-bathroom executive style home in Foster City's desirable Marina Point neighborhood. To area residents, the advantages of living in Foster City are well-known. Central location, enviably balmy climate, excellent schools, much convenient shopping, numerous recreational facilities and public parks (19 on 100 acres, more parks per capita than any other city in California): these features would certainly head the list. With its unique configuration of waterways interlacing the city, it easily qualifies as "the Venice of Silicon Valley." Its fortress-like position on the Mid-Peninsula, with only a handful of roads to enter and exit across its "moats," helps explain why the city is one of the safest not just in the San Francisco Bay Area or the state of California but in the entire country. So it comes as no surprise that Foster City recently made Money magazine's "Best Small Cities to Live in" list. (Click here if you want to see the profile.) Foster City is home to the world headquarters of VISA International, the main corporate body of the VISA payment card organization, as well as a surprising number of other major employers (including Acxiom Digital, Applied Biosystems, SolarCity, Sling Media and Sony Computer Entertainment America). Within this idyllic location, the planned community founded by T. Jack Foster in the 1960s, the Marina Point neighborhood boasts easy access to most of what makes living in Foster City so convenient and enjoyable. Though the house needs work to bring it up-to-speed, it is superior to recent comps in at least three respects: (1) its position relative to Beach Park Boulevard (fast access yet buffered from street noise by several other houses), (2) larger interior square footage (250 square feet, on average) and (3) larger lot size (2,500 square feet larger than the smaller of the comps). Architecturally, 321 Cutter Street is also much more impressive and interesting, with superior curb appeal, as a simple visual comparison will attest. There's not another house similar to this one available for sale in Marina Point at this time, so interested parties are encouraged to investigate promptly, by making an appointment with the listing agent for a private showing. *Information deemed reliable but not guaranteed.

HERE'S YOUR CHANCE to move your family into one of Silicon Valley's most desirable neighborhoods: beautiful Waverly Park, in Mountain View. Quality schools, easy access to all major transportation arteries and countless other amenities . . . this location has it all. Property Highlights: * 5 BDs, 3 BAs, large 3-car garage* 2,946 square foot interior* 9,583 square foot lot size* Prime Waverly Park location* EZ access to 85, 237, 101 &amp; 280* Completely remodeled &amp; updated* 1 bedroom + full bath on 1st floor* Granite kitchen, modern appliances * Central A/C, indoor security system* Stereo wiring &amp; surround sound* Copper repiping throughout* Upgraded for electrical &amp; earthquake* Lifetime roof w/ transferable warranty* Deluxe solar-heated swimming pool* 5 different types of bountiful fruit trees* Walking distance to two high schools* Immaculate, move-in condition The house includes many improvements and conveniences, too numerous to cover in detail here (ask for a Fact Sheet when you visit the property), such as French drain with sump pump in the crawl space area to keep it dry, an outside hot-and-cold-water shower near the swimming pool, reverse osmosis drinking system, newer 50-gallon water heater, electronic water softener system, updated bathrooms as well as kitchen, garden shed with workbench and built-in shelves and outdoor stereo speakers in the beautifully landscaped backyard, with its own mini orchard, reminiscent of the area's previous agricultural character: orange, apple, tangerine, lemon and lime trees. When you visit the home, you will be pleasantly surprised by the tasteful decorations applied to the walls: floral patterns, graceful hummingbirds and colorful butterflies create a relaxing "oasis" atmosphere, bringing the interior to life, in a whimsical and most pleasant way. It's worth a visit just to see this unique custom artwork! The turnover in the picturesque Waverly Park neighborhood is low, with homes becoming available infrequently. There's nothing like this currently on the market and there may not be again, for some time to come. Better hurry, as this opportunity may not last long!
