North Los Altos
Set on a prime corner in a sought-after North Los Altos neighborhood, this newly completed home offers stunning modern design, luxurious functionality, and outstanding flexibility for a variety of lifestyle needs. The all-electric, solar-powered construction blends sleek architectural lines with warm finishes including Jerusalem limestone, wide-plank engineered oak floors, and custom cabinetry throughout.
The versatile floor plan includes an attached 1-bedroom, 1-bath ADU with its own living area and kitchen, ideal for guests, extended family, or the living area can optionally be used as part of the main home. At the heart of the floor plan is an expansive great room with a dramatic linear fireplace, stacking sliding glass doors to the terrace, and a designer kitchen finished in striking quartzite. A main-level bedroom suite opens to the yard, while the upper level offers three more bedrooms, including a private primary suite with soaring ceiling and spa-inspired bath.
Indoor/outdoor living is fully embraced with a heated covered terrace, a built-in barbecue center, and expansive lawn. Additional amenities include a 10 kW solar array, EV outlets in the garage, and premium windows and doors throughout. All of this, just one mile from the Village and with access to top-rated Los Altos schools, makes this a truly exceptional offering.

A weekly newspaper, the Los Altos Town Crier, has its offices on Main Street.
Los Altos is an affluent community, with a median household income of $158,000, according to United States Census Bureau data. Of Los Altos’ 11,204 housing units, 84.5 percent are owner occupied. According to Forbes' 2014 list of America's Most Expensive ZIP Codes, the city's 94022 and 94024 ZIP codes had median home prices of $2,896,103 and $2,527,908, respectively.
