Description

Stunning remodel on one of the prized jewel streets of San Carlos. Meticulous attention to detail, the most sought-after fixtures/building materials throughout and thoughtful designer touches make this home a true must-see for buyers searching for that ideal location within White Oaks. This home was taken down to the studs and rebuilt, including new plumbing and electrical. Highlights include an oversized great room with contemporary finishes and colors, a true chef's kitchen with oversized waterfall-edged island and Wolf appliances, two en suites (one of which could double as a separate family room) and perfectly manicured yards. Walking distance to schools and parks. This property is in close proximity to key commuter access points as well as a short distance to downtown San Carlos. This home must be seen in person to be truly appreciated. Private showings are available upon request and in compliance with San Mateo County Covid showing guidelines.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

    "San Carlos used to be a cute small town in the Bay Area. Unfortunately, along with the rest of this area, it’s been over run with people. Too many people moved here, too many town houses are being built and the traffic is terrible. No one has any patience while driving, and often do not wait for me and my daughter to cross in crosswalks. It’s sad to see this quaint town has lost all its character."
