Home of the Day: July 26, 2011


600 MOORE ROAD, WOODSIDE
7 bed / 7 full and 2 half bath / 8,750 square feet


The listing agent for this property describes it as "the ultimate lifestyle property", and I'm inclined to agree.

The house itself is nothing short of delightful.  It is dramatic and distinctive while still emanating a sense of whimsicality and warmth that make this property really feel like a home.  The stunning Italian style brick facade makes you forget your location (a delightfully shady and narrow country lane) and transports you outside of Silicon Valley...well, except for the incomparable view of the Bay Area.

The floor plan offers myriad surprises.  The master suite is a focal point here, with a large bedroom (complete with stone fireplace) that leads off into a grand hall with access to two large custom closets and a complete stunner of a bathroom, featuring everything from custom artwork to a walk-through shower.  Another highlight is a sophisticated basement wine cellar (seen above) that could easily hold intimate tastings and dinner parties.

Not to be outdone by the house, the grounds more than hold their own.  Situated on a little over 3.2 acres, they boast everything you could possibly want...a beautiful pool, clay tennis court, bocce ball court, two guest houses (one a 2 bed / 2 bath, the other a 1 bed / 1 bath)...the list goes on and on.  There are few properties in this area that can fulfill such a wide variety of needs with this level of style and detail.
