About This Home

79 Placitas Avenue

Beyond a gated entrance, this modern home blends sleek architecture, resort-like grounds with heated pool, tons of natural light and indoor outdoor living at its best. Designed by architect Mary Maydan in 2015, the two-level home offers 6 bedrooms and 5.5 baths, providing exceptional lifestyle flexibility. A dramatic great room features radiant-heated polished concrete floors, soaring ceilings, and walls of glass framing the private yard. An integrated linear fireplace and Fleetwood doors anchor the space. The dining area is highlighted by an oversized designer dome pendant. The chefs kitchen, under a partial glass ceiling, combines wood and white cabinetry, Corian counters, a wood island, and premium stainless appliances. A flexible-use room with separate entry is ideal for office or media off the kitchen. The main level also includes a guest suite with outdoor access and two en suite bedrooms. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite has a balcony, walk-in closet, and spa-like bath, plus two additional bedrooms sharing a hallway bathroom. Smart systems include radiant heat, mini-split HVAC, EV charging, and whole-home sound. Renderings available for 2 ADU additions. Set on 0.6 acres, the private, lushly landscaped lot is moments from downtown and enjoys top Menlo Park schools.
