What This House Offers

A rare opportunity to lease an exceptional 5BR/4BA single-story California ranch designed by renowned Palo Alto architect Birge Clark, ideally located in the coveted Leland Manor neighborhood. Set on an extraordinary 11,000+ square foot lot, the home was originally designed by Clark for the 1939 San Francisco Exposition and reflects the craftsmanship, proportion, and timeless character for which his work is celebrated.

Vaulted ceilings, rich wood paneling, hardwood floors, abundant natural light, generous bedroom suites, and a beautifully landscaped courtyard create a warm and sophisticated living environment.
