45 Fredrick Avenue, Atherton

Enjoy a prestigious Lindenwood address and expansive indoor/outdoor enjoyment at this shingled East Coast style home on nearly one acre. The classic and timeless design, predominantly on one level with upstairs guest suite, has been updated throughout. Complementing the spacious main residence are additional dwellings including a separate one-bedroom guest house, a studio ideal for an office, a fitness center and wine storage. Fine hardwood floors and new carpeting enhance the setting along with crown moldings and many French doors allowing indoor/outdoor floor throughout. Every room is amply proportioned including formal venues, a dedicated office, plus a renovated kitchen and family room. There are 5 large bedrooms, including the main-level primary suite plus three additional bedrooms, as well as the upstairs guest suite with balcony. The detached guest house doubles as a venue for poolside entertaining. The grounds are interwoven with beautiful gardens that include dogwood trees and irises plus an expansive poolside fireplace terrace. Topping it all off is the home’s access to top-rated Menlo Park schools and proximity to downtown shopping and dining.
