Urban Farmhouse Oasis Close to Stanford
About the Space
Built in 1951, our farmhouse and its 1 acre land feels like an orchard in the middle of Palo Alto. Despite being walking distance from Rivian, Tesla, HP, and Stanford, Barron Park area was primarily used for farming and ranching in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Barron Park resisted annexation to Palo Alto to preserve its semi-rural character before finally being incorporated into Palo Alto in 1975. Matadero Avenue is near several local parks, including Bol Park, which offers recreational opportunities and is known for its donkeys, Perry and Jenny. Matadero Creek: The street runs parallel to Matadero Creek, which is a natural feature in the area. Efforts to preserve and enhance the creek’s natural state have been part of local environmental initiatives. If you’re interested in using the front or backyard spaces, we’d be happy to create a customized offer based on a few details such as noise levels, hours of use, cleaning needs, specific areas, and the number of guests. If you wish to stay overnight, we kindly recommend providing at least 72 hours’ notice so we can best accommodate your needs. The home includes 4 bedrooms: 1 king bed, 2 queen beds, 1 full bed, a two-level daybed in the living room, and 2 large sofas. Overnight rates range from $500 to $900 per night, depending on the number of guests, bedroom usage, cleaning requirements, and how far in advance the reservation is made. Please feel free to share your plans, and we’ll be happy to put together the best option for you.
