505 Pope Street

A stately Deodar cedar guards this much loved Willows home, while a grove of mature redwoods creates a magical backdrop visible from the kitchen window. The same family has enjoyed this home and gardens since 1965, and now it is ready for its next forever people and new stories. Abundant natural light fills every room through large windows and a skylight, while the flexible layout can adapt as life evolves. Recent improvements include a new refrigerator, dishwasher, range, and microwave; freshly painted interior walls, new light fixtures and improved garden irrigation. The gardens are a story of their own. Mature trees and thoughtful plantings create a peaceful setting, while each rock holds a memory. The Willows is close to Stanford University, excellent Menlo Park schools, major commuting corridors, and both downtown Menlo Park and Palo Alto. Just a few blocks away are Haven Wine Bar, Cafe Zoe, Neighborhood Pizza Guy, La Hacienda Market, and more. Nearby parks and Burgess Recreation Center add to the neighborhoods everyday appeal. Silicon Valley International School is also in the neighborhood. Imagine walking with your favorite person or pet enjoying the trees and birdsong, knowing that you belong to this collection of humans in one of the best places on earth.
