About this home
A Swatt | Miers masterpiece in the heart of Crescent Park, this 2015 residence balances architectural precision with everyday ease. Western red cedar finishes carry continuously from interior to exterior, grounding a palette of warm, considered materials beneath ceilings scaled for openness. Radiant-heated European oak floors, lofty volumes, and a seamless connection to the rear yard define the living experience — private, calm, and oriented toward the outdoors. Five suites, plus a fully customized home office, accommodate work and rest with equal care. An irrigated living wall, room-darkening shades, and a generous garden complete a home designed as much for wellbeing as for beauty. Half a block to Eleanor Pardee Park, one mile to University Avenue, and served by Palo Alto's acclaimed schools.
