3D Tour
Location, location, location! Extremely quiet street, no commuter train noise, no drive-through traffic. Move into this beautiful home with the charming characters or design&build a brand new dream home with ideal lot shape (100x120 ft) for rebuild. Center of the three best schools in PA. Walking distance to Caltrain. Designed by renowned designer Marcus Stedman, owned by William (Bill) Redington Hewlett, co-founder of Hewlett-Packard (HP), and his wife, Flora Hewlett. Bill and Flora raised 5 children and owned the house for half century. Nearly square parcel, Over 100 ft of frontage. The house was well maintained and kept original hardware, the v-groove pegged oak flooring, light fixtures, chandelier, etc. Another common feature is colorful handcrafted tile, often from Solon and Larkin in San Jose. The used brick fireplace features the small adjacent window that is a Stedman and Stedman characteristic. The public, more formal court off the living room is paved in used brick, a Stedman preference? note the "Oakland" and "Livermore" stamps on some. The painting on the outdoor wall is by Palo Alto painter Marguerite Fletcher. Marcus Stedman designed many dozens of homes between 1931 and the mid?1960s. He worked in a charming style reminiscent both of Carmel cottages and the early California Ranch house, featuring low shake roofs and artistically patterned brickwork on walls, fireplaces, and chimneys. He worked with Silvestre's Iron Works, of Allied Arts Guild fame, to incorporate wrought-iron door hardware, light fixtures, curtain rods, fireplace tools and screens. Another characteristic is his skillful use of wood: hand?hewn beamed ceilings show structure and style; exterior siding is wide and expressive with deliberate shadow lines. Always, the doors are wide wood with some embellishment.
