West Atherton Estate

Majestically positioned beyond prolific formal gardens and an expansive front lawn, this timeless 1920’s Colonial-style estate gracefully blends stately distinction with modern amenities, impeccable entertaining grounds and exceptional recreational facilities.


Located in a most desirable West Atherton location, the breathtaking approach leads to the grand front terrace.  Beyond a beveled glass double entry, the main home boasts 6 spacious bedrooms, 4.5 baths and more than 5,650 square feet of living space that is harmoniously elegant and remarkably comfortable. Exquisite and enduring details including wainscoting, hardwood flooring, elaborate moldings and fine woodwork evidence craftsmanship of a bygone era, and lend a warmth and character that is rarely found today.


Situated on an extraordinarily large lot of approximately 1.85 serene acres of towering oaks and soaring redwoods, this incomparable estate meets every imaginable need of today’s modern family.  Each member of the active family will find something to enjoy – whether it’s the separate 2-level, 3,000-bottle wine cellar, the regulation sport court, the commercial-grade music studio or the raised vegetable garden complete with a potting room – there’s something to appeal to everyone.


In addition to the main residence, the estate offers a separate guesthouse of approximately 1,700 square feet complete with a full kitchen and private patio to comfortably accommodate out-of-town visitors, an au pair or other live-in staff.  The vast rear grounds afford the opportunity to host sophisticated and lavish gatherings and events of any size.


The resort-like grounds epitomize the ultimate in outdoor living – expansive lawns, meandering brick pathways, a sparkling pool, sport court, entertaining gazebo, barbecue center with outdoor fireplace, and raised vegetable/herb garden.  The entertainer’s dream culminates in the vintage Cape Cod style pool house complete with rosewood-paneled walls, fireplace, full bathroom and complete kitchen remodel in 2005.
