Lindenwood Estate with Resort Like Grounds
269 Oak Grove Avenue
Atherton
Offered at $15,000,000
This exceptional English Modern manor commands an impressive presence in Lindenwood, introduced by gated pedestrian and driveway entrances, a sweeping approach, and vast front lawns that create a stately arrival on approximately one acre. Beyond its striking curb appeal unfolds a rare estate property of remarkable scale, with resort-caliber amenities. The expansive main residence, together with a detached guest house that also serves as an indoor/outdoor entertainment pavilion, offers grand-scale living designed for both lavish entertainment and everyday luxury.
Inside, timeless architecture is paired with richly detailed interiors and beautifully proportioned rooms. An impressive foyer with cascading staircase introduces fine hardwood floors and refined millwork that continue throughout the main living areas. Formal living and dining rooms define the home’s classic elegance, complemented by a butler’s pantry with wine bar for seamless entertaining. At the center of the home, the designer kitchen and family room create an expansive gathering space opening directly to the rear tumbled travertine patios and sun-filled grounds. Honed marble counters, two islands, and premium appliances equip the kitchen for serious culinary pursuits, while the spacious family room with wood-burning fireplace easily accommodates casual dining and relaxed daily living. Completing the main level are a private office with en suite bath and direct access to both living and family rooms, a fitness center opening directly to the tennis court, and a guest bedroom with adjacent bath.
Upstairs, the primary suite is a luxurious private retreat with balcony, customized wardrobe area, and marble bath appointed with dual vanities, air-jet tub, steam shower, and separate make-up area. Four additional large bedroom suites, each with walk-in closet and full bath are arranged steps away to a second family room with reflective glass gas fireplace and balcony, providing exceptional accommodations for family members. There is also an additional upstairs laundry and ample storage areas.
The detached modern cottage is a destination itself, designed as both private quarters and an entertainment pavilion. Walls of glass open on two sides, one to the pool and one to the large flexible use patio, while an all-glass atrium ceiling crowns the main gathering area with retractable TV screen for outdoor viewing under a European style retractable awning. A separate media/recreation lounge, full kitchen with outdoor counter access, bedroom with built-in king-size Murphy bed, and a bath with shower complete the space. Guests can also enjoy a temperature controlled alfresco shower.
The grounds include a Pebble-Tec pool, separately controlled in-ground spa, heated terrace area with retractable European-style awning, multiple sitting and gathering areas, 4-hole putting green, extensive front and backyard lawns, large patio with ample room for tennis and pickleball, and small fruit orchard with mature apple, fig, and lemon trees.
Home includes Control4 home automation, security and an automatic driveway gate. Ideally located within a highly walkable neighborhood, this property offers direct proximity to top-rated schools and downtown amenities, plus quick access to the innovation hubs of Silicon Valley and Stanford University.
It is exceptionally unique to find a family estate of this magnitude in Lindenwood; this home balances sophisticated presence with purposeful design to offer the ultimate luxury living experience.
