Overview

Spanish Villa & Casita on Edgewood Park’s Premier Street


Located on one of the most sought-after Edgewood Park streets, this home has roots dating back to 1931 with classic Spanish architecture. The home has been extensively remodeled and expanded and newly updated with fresh paint throughout for a bright and light ambiance. Beautiful gardens and brickwork introduce the home, leading past a walled courtyard patio that extends from the formal dining room for al fresco entertaining. Beautiful hardwood or antiqued-edge travertine floors and crown moldings unify every room, exposed beams and trusses crown the formal living room and dining room, and four lighted niches are exquisitely backed by braided travertine awaiting display of fine art.

The open kitchen is at the heart of the home with ample space for casual dining and an extending family room that doubles as a media center with built-in speakers. Richly hued cabinetry is topped in granite slab with limestone backsplashes and includes an island with breakfast bar seating. A suite of quality Thermador appliances stands ready for the most demanding chef. Glass doors in the kitchen and family room provide an easy connection to the private rear yard where a vast terrace is outlined with built-in seating and an integrated fireplace with impressive chimneypiece. Lush flowering gardens and lawn, flagstone walkways, and a wide finished driveway expand the outdoor venue for incredible recreation and entertaining space.

Personal accommodations begin with two bedrooms, each with en suite bath finished in an array of Spanish-themed tiles. Ceilings showcase the home’s original layers of detail along with a center light, and closets have built-in organizers for added functionality. The primary bedroom suite unfolds at the rear of the home with wood-framed sliding glass doors to the rear yard, three closets, and a luxurious en suite bath with large frameless-glass shower and separate soaking tub. Adding to the accommodations is the casita, attached to the oversized 2-car garage, and offering the perfect spot for a work-from-home office or guest quarters with its kitchenette and full bath with shower. Located in the sought-after Edgewood Park neighborhood, this home is also just minutes to vibrant downtown Redwood City amenities.

Redwood City

Redwood City’s location in the heart of the peninsula is an excellent location for working in Silicon Valley and San Francisco. Within close proximity to Atherton, Woodside and Stanford, the downtown is currently undergoing a major renaissance with a new movie theatre and shopping complex recently completed, as well as a new Whole Foods. The town is the county seat with courthouses and an array of county services, and has the only deepwater port on San Francisco Bay south of The City itself. The neighborhood of Redwood Shores is part of Redwood City, although it is not possible to travel by road from one to the other without passing through the neighboring city of San Carlos.

The outdoor enthusiast has plenty to be excited about with what a day of adventure can yield; Edgewood Park’s serpentine grasslands offers relaxing vistas with miles of hiking and equestrian trails, and Redwood Shores has delightful waterways and paved walking trails. The Mount Carmel and Emerald Lake Hills (in unincorporated SM County) neighborhoods reflect the area’s rich cultural heritage with well designed, distinct homes and large wooded, private lots.

Canada Community College, just off 280, is within striking distance of many peninsula homes.
