New Organic Modern Living with Bespoke Design
89 Douglass Way
Atherton
Just completed, this organic modern home and guest house showcase a level of design, craftsmanship, and finishes not often seen in new construction, as it was custom designed by the architect for his own use. Spanning three levels, the home is defined by a curated palette of materials, where each space introduces its own distinctive character rather than a singular, repetitive aesthetic. Throughout, white oak floors and extraordinary designer lighting serve as unifying elements – sculptural, architectural, and thoughtfully integrated to elevate every space.
The floor plan is designed for both entertaining and everyday living, with formal living and dining rooms, a tremendous kitchen-family room, and a lower-level recreation and wellness level. Two temperature-controlled wine cellars, a fully appointed bar, and a fitness center with steam room add to the home’s exceptional amenities, while a separate guest house provides added flexibility for a variety of lifestyle needs. The grounds are equally impressive, offering resort-inspired living with a pool, spa, pickleball court, and expansive areas for recreation and entertaining. Plus, a convenient rear gate provides easy access to all the amenities and array of new restaurants in downtown Menlo Park just blocks away.
