This place is amazing! The house and grounds are beautiful, spacious, and very well kept. We were in Palo Alto spending Thanksgiving week with family, and the flow of the open kitchen to open dining room to open living room allowed us to enjoy each others’ company while doing separate things to get ready for the big dinner. The kitchen is a cook’s dream, abundantly stocked with more than enough pans, utensils, appliances, etc, to prepare and serve Thanksgiving dinner. There is a gas fireplace in both the living room and the master bedroom, and a gas fire pit outside. (There is actually an entire outdoor entertainment area with grill, dining table and chairs, and spaces for lounging and sitting, but, disappointingly, the weather kept us from enjoying it.) There are two good-sized bedrooms with a jack-and-jill full bath, and a hallway half-bath. A separate laundry room adjoins a terrific little work-out room. The master suite is unbelievable: sunken bedroom has king bed, fireplace, tv, and walk-out to back yard. Adjoining bathroom is wonderful: heated floors, heated towel rack, two sinks with a generous amount of counter space, soaking tub, and good-size shower; an ample walk-in closet rounds out the suite. The house is all on one floor but the ceilings soar as high as the roof of a two-story house with attic! Almost every wall in the house (bathrooms excepted) has good-sized windows to let in the beautiful California sunshine. I especially love how the sun streams into the kitchen-DR-LR combination for several hours a day through windows positioned high up the wall, near the ceiling. In short, all of our group loved our week at Scott’s place and we’re already wondering if we might be able to make this a new Thanksgiving tradition......
