Perfect setting for anyone???s dream home. This sunny, flat lot is located in a serene and rustic environment with mature Oak and Redwood trees. The numerous luxury properties that already exist in the neighborhood make this an ideal place to build a quality home. A perfect lot in a great neighborhood – don???t miss this exceptional opportunity! The Property is being sold as land value only.

Holy cow! .43 acres! That’s a huge amount of land!

Here’s what Burbed reader Sonarrat had to say about this house:

Could anyone justify this? Seriously. If it was zoned R3, sure. It’s close to the apartments on Coleman Road, so it would be a nice site for a new complex. But it’s not, it’s R1.

I think you’re missing the point. This is your opportunity to build your dream home, your trophy home. Your home that says “I just IPOed!” Your home that says “Silicon Valley makes everyone rich!” This one isn’t about monetization. It’s about showoffization.

Just think of how envious others will be when you build your own Menlo Park version of Versailles on this .43 acre plot of land.

The first thing I would do? Give the estate a name.

I’d call it “Athertonish”.

    How could it not be? It doesn’t get much more RBA than that slice of Menlo right there! Nestled gently between the bounteous bosoms of Atherton and Palo Alto, living in that neighborhood is like motorboating heaven.

    $2300 a sqr. foot???? Say WHAT?!

    And Bill Maher gets ragged on for calling this country ‘stupid’. Yah, he was way off in that assesment.

    The RBA is truly scaling new heights. The new dawn is upon us!

    I have a neighbor who has a small child who on occasion says “I just IPOed!” and then they change his diaper.

  7. burbed Says:

    IPOed? How childish indeed! It’s all about acquisitions!

    I heard there were 12 new millionaires working in Mountain View thanks to the acquisition of FriendFeed by facebook.

    The money train rolls on!

    I bet some of them were already millionnaires. Who leaves Google to fund one’s own company?

  9. Herve Estater Says:

    That’s it, I’m starting my own company: FiendFreed.

    With offices in Austin, TX and Las Vegas, NV, I’m sure I can attract talents to run mega projects!
