45 Glen Alpine Road, Piedmont

Circa 1913, this extraordinary and unique estate was once a hunting lodge owned by Stanford University. A rare and storied remnant of a once grand 5.5 acre compound, it now functions as a private property, on nearly one full acre. Formal, yet functional, ornate iron gates welcome you onto a stone driveway and circular motor court with manicured grounds both front and back, while the side yard gives way to a majestic oak grove with a serene creek below. Formal yet inviting, this elegant home begins with an impressive foyer that unfolds into grand-scale living and dining rooms.

The former ballroom, now a luxurious primary suite, includes a custom bathroom with Japanese soaking tub, generous closet space, and a dedicated home office. The main level features a beautifully renovated, eat-in kitchen, a sunlit study, a butler’s pantry, two additional bedrooms, and three full baths. Upstairs, you’ll find four more bedrooms, two-plus bathrooms, generous landings, and a home gym with a convenient kitchenette. Tucked above the 4-car tandem garage, a separate 1-bedroom/1-bath studio offers privacy for guests, extended family, or an au pair. 

Secure, private, and undeniably special, this distinguished property blends timeless architecture with modern-day comforts. Rich in history and refined in detail, 45 Glen Alpine offers a rare opportunity to live in a home where craftsmanship, character, and scale converge to provide the perfect oasis in a town known for its beauty, and sought after for its highly-coveted K-12 public education, stunning parks, after school programs, community celebrations, and a superb location with easy San Francisco access.
