The Latest Properties To Hit The Market In Palo Alto, CA
Friday, Sept 26, 2025
Let’s see what’s good? Palo Alto has 72 activity single family home listings as of today, and a number of those have had price reductions, should this be any indication on how buyers and sellers are feeling! I am looking forward to a relaxing weekend with a bit of work mixed in! I plan to check-out a Calenda parade happening on Cal Ave in Palo Alto, and will be hosting and open house at this cute property on Sunday, so come say ‘hello!’
Palo Alto 233 – South Palo Alto
Listing Agent / Broker: Wen Guo RE Group, KW Advisors
Address: 3941 Duncan Pl
Bedrooms: 5 – Bathrooms: 3 Full
Sqft: 1795
Lot Sqft: 7840
Price: $3,600,000
Listing Agent remarks: Stunning estate on over an acre. Park-like grounds & impeccable design.
My takeaways: I think the story on this one is the lot. This was an Eichler whose remodeling over the years hasn’t done the house justice, and most of the effort has been placed in the kitchen and main room. The primary bathroom is tiny, let’s just say a relationship could be strained navigating that small space! One would have to weigh updating the house vs creating a new.
Listing Agent / Broker: Desiree Docktor, Compass
Address: 782 Holly Oak Dr
Bedrooms: 3 – Bathrooms: 2 Full
Sqft: 2006
Lot Sqft: 7018
Price: $3,498,000
Listing Agent remarks: Do not miss this Eichler!
My takeaways: True story. In the center of this house is a tractable roof, originally built in the 70’s that the listing agent is getting pricing on to fix so it works once again – an awesome unique touch. This house had a great vibe to it. It was open and had a wonderful flow to it as I moved from room to room. There is room for updating, especially the floors as there were many different levels, but overall a great house and if the buyer gets the roof working again, an absolute show stopper!
Palo Alto 234 – Midtown Palo Alto
Listing Agent / Broker: Denise Simons, Compass
Address: 3173 South Ct
Bedrooms: 3 – Bathrooms: 2 Full
Sqft: 1610
Lot Sqft: 6519
Price: $3,298,000
Listing Agent remarks: Don’t miss this stunning home in the heart of Midtown.
My takeaways: Love, love. The stage is set for this house with the beautiful front yard and enclosed seating area. It also has a side porch and backyard offering many opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. The sellers have been there for 40 yrs and have loved the house in full.
The house right across the street is listed down below under Price Reductions and from what I heard today it has sold.
Palo Alto 237 – Old Palo Alto
Listing Agent / Broker: Ciana Megan Tierney, Compass
Address: 627 Tennyson Ave
Bedrooms: 6 – Bathrooms: 6 Full, 1 Half
Sqft: 4881
Lot Sqft: 7498
Price: $9,850,000
Listing Agent remarks: Luxurious home in Old Palo Alto don’t miss seeing this one!
My takeaways: I struggle with the stock Mediterranean house, the vision is rarely woven through the property in full, and well, this house lives up to that less than full vision. This house has a lot of details covered; an outdoor fireplace (with glass doors which felt more indoor than outdoor), sauna, theater, downstairs bar and wine cellar. For this price point, me personally… I would want more yard space or a lot that was better optimized between house and yard space.
Listing Agent / Broker: Supriya Gavande, Compass
Address: 113 Seale Ave
Bedrooms: 4 – Bathrooms: 3 Full
Sqft: 1913
Lot Sqft: 3750
Price: $4,250,000
Listing Agent remarks: Exceptional, elegant, and contemporary Old Palo Alto Gem!
My takeaways: I swung passed this house and missed the fact that it didn’t show until 12pm! This house is on a subdivided lot so has a house directly in front of it.
Palo Alto 239 – Crescent Park
Listing Agent / Broker: Vivian Lee, Homeland Realty
Address: 90 Crescent Dr
Bedrooms: 5 – Bathrooms: 5 Full, 2 Half
Sqft: 5213
Lot Sqft: 9100
Price: $9,418,000
Listing Agent remarks: N/A
My takeaways: This house has been on the market for some time and this is the 2nd price reduction, below are my takeaways:
This is a brand new build. Located on the lovely Crescent Dr. They did a great job with positioning the house on the lot so one doesn’t particularly notice University Ave which is a main thoroughfare here in Palo Alto. They put in 2 kitchens upstairs to accommodate different cultures, a nice touch. I think this house would be tough for a young family as the bedrooms are split between the upstairs and downstairs, there are also stairs in the middle of the property so not particularly child friendly. The house has an odd flow to it, it feels choppy. The downstairs feels cavernous, just a lot of space that I am not sure would fully be utilized. It almost feels like 2 houses, the upstairs and the downstairs, but for those who have long staying guests it could be perfect.
Listing Agent / Broker: Rita Intardonato, Parc Agency Corporation
Address: 1101 Hamilton Ave
Bedrooms: 3 – Bathrooms: 3 Full, 1 Half
Sqft: 2994
Lot Sqft: 6300
Price: $6,488,000
Listing Agent remarks: Beautiful home in Crescent Park with thoughtful improvements!
My takeaways: This was on the market earlier this year. It was pulled, they did some landscaping work based on potential buyer input and reduced the price. I am floored that this house did not sell. I went back to simply hang out in what I think is an amazing space. Literally out of every window you can see the green of the trees and vines. The current owners never moved in and the owners before that were a couple with no kids so the house has been gently lived in with a major remodel done in 2017, I believe. This house will continue to linger in my mind!
Listing Agent / Broker: Lan L. Bowling, Keller Williams Palo Alto
Address: 20 Kent Pl
Bedrooms: 2 – Bathrooms: 2 Full
Sqft: 1650
Lot Sqft: 7137
Price: $4,198,000
Listing Agent remarks: Enchanting Garden Retreat in Crescent Park
My takeaways: Tremendous location. Quirky house with some excellent vaulted ceilings. My believe someone will need to overhaul this house or start-over. The house was definitely designed for entertaining as there is a full, pull up a stool and sit for awhile bar in the main living space
Palo Alto 241 – Professorville
Listing Agent / Broker: Brian Chancellor, Christie’s International Real Estate Sereno
Address: 560 Addison Ave
Bedrooms: 2 – Bathrooms: 2 Full
Sqft: 1276
Lot Sqft: 3600
Price: $2,698,000
Listing Agent remarks: Charming, updated Victorian w/ flexible floor plan including a FR.
My takeaways: This is an okay cottage within walking distance of downtown Palo Alto. The house has an updated kitchen that doesn’t really fit the original charm of the house and there is a full bathroom right off the main room which is sort of strange – feels like the entry way should have been around the corner.
Palo Alto 242 – Downtown Palo Alto
Listing Agent / Broker: Derk Brill, Compass
Address: 115 Waverley St
Bedrooms: 5 – Bathrooms: 3 Full, 2 Half
Sqft: 3835
Lot: 7900
Price: $7,750,000
Listing Agent remarks: Traditional elegance meets contemporary living in downtown North. This is a 10!
My takeaways: Gutted right down to the studs in 2018 – beautifully and thoughtfully designed and built. This was my first stop on tour and could have easily been my last. Perfection. The wins for me; the stained glass worked in through the house and windows, the brick driveway, the hefty front and back porches, the mini lockers for kid’s back packs and coats, and best yet a story left in the front yard about how the family started collecting gnomes, leaving them around the neighborhood and they left one underneath the tree in the front yard.
