1912 Atherton house asks $5.9 million

Downright quaint compared to new constructions in the area asking for $20 million or higher, this 1912 home in Atherton is the ideal home for the Silicon Valley family looking to plant roots.

Coming in at four beds, three and a half baths, and 3,360 square feet, 4 Surrey Lane’s main house features an updated kitchen and family room, as well as a stone fireplace highlighting the living room. There’s also an attic space fit for a game room (as is its current state) or something far more chic.

There’s also a separate two-bedroom guest house with full kitchen. And the property’s grounds come with a bocce ball court and pool.

Although the property was renovated at some point over this century, it could benefit from design upkeep—most egregiously, vessel sinks in the bathrooms. (Alas, many a fabulous interior designer fell for the siren song of the vessel sink in the early aughts; we all make mistakes.)

Asking is $5,995,000.
