Property Overview
Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, 1527 Laurel Place offers a rare blend of prestige and untapped potential. This solid, single-story rancher is perfectly positioned on the edge of the historic Felton Gables neighborhood and the Atherton border, placing you just minutes from the vibrant dining and shopping of downtown Menlo Park. The home features a functional, light-filled floor plan where the spacious living room overlooks a private backyard oasis.

Whether you're looking to move in and enjoy the peaceful setting or reimagine the space entirely, this is an exceptional opportunity to secure a generational lot in one of the Peninsulas most desirable pockets.
