Opportunity Awaits in Barron Park
751 Florales Drive, Palo Alto
Welcome to Barron Park, a sought-after community with abundant greenery, meandering creeks, and bicycle paths, all contributing to its tranquil atmosphere. On the market for the first time in over 50 years, this circa 1947 home awaits your dream vision for the future. The level rectangular lot offers a generous size of approximately 8,910 square feet with 66-foot frontage and 135-foot depth. Lush foliage and brick patios with the patina of age surround the home, including a sun-swept rear patio.
The home’s original design includes many characteristics of the classic mid-century modern style with slightly vaulted open-beam ceilings, elevated transom windows, and wall-to-wall windows looking out to the gardens. Appointments throughout remain vintage and true to the era. Hex tile floors begin at the entrance and continue throughout most of the home. The spacious living room has a fireplace and adjoining office, and the open formal dining area has rear yard access. The kitchen includes an opening to the dining room and has direct access to the attached 2-car garage. A separate wing accommodates the home’s two bedrooms and one bath.
Surrounded by many newer upscale homes, this location benefits from proximity to Stanford University and offers hidden bike paths with connections to acclaimed Palo Alto schools, including Gunn High.
