An exceptional opportunity awaits on nearly one-quarter acre just blocks from the downtown Los Altos Village. The spacious level lot is located at the end of a premier non-through street in highly desirable North Los Altos, less than one-half mile from Village shops and restaurants. A vintage ranch home with 3 bedrooms, office and 2 baths is ready for its next chapter, whether through an extensive remodel or an entirely new vision. The existing home spans approximately 1,696 square feet and includes traditional living spaces, a primary suite, and an attached 2-car garage. Outside, the approximately 9,928-square-foot lot provides an exceptional canvas for creating a new indoor/outdoor lifestyle, with a signature Canary palm tree adding established character to the back yard. Offered in as-is condition, this property presents tremendous potential in a coveted neighborhood with access to excellent Los Altos schools.
