649 Mirada Ave, Stanford, CA 94305

Available to eligible Stanford faculty only. Set on a quiet knoll with marvelous views of the East Bay Hills, this estate property commands one of the most prestigious locations on Stanford campus--San Juan Hill--and one of the very largest parcels, at 1.67 acres. Rarely does such a unique and spectacular offering come available. Originally built in 1917, the gracious home has been strategically expanded and remodeled over the years while retaining period charm in the original grand living room with the adjacent dining room and library. The more contemporary gourmet kitchen with modern amenities opens to a comfortable family room ideal for everyday living. The bedrooms are arranged with two primary suites, one on the upper level adjacent to two other family bedrooms, and one on the lower level opening to an outdoor loggia. Ipe wood decks and patios provide easy indoor/outdoor access and full appreciation of the dramatic grounds. A bountiful orchard, berry garden and enclosed planting bed are perfect for the culinary aficionado, while the tennis court and putting green provide recreation for the athletically inclined. A separate cottage equipped with a kitchenette and full bath accommodates guests or work from home. This is truly an exceptional opportunity on Stanford campus!
