On a quiet street in Barron Park, one block from Barron Park Elementary and two blocks from Cornelius Bol Park, is an alluring property with majestic deciduous trees and lush landscaping with a pathway leading to the front door of a contemporary, two-story residence.
Entirely rebuilt in 2005, 730 Josina Avenue’s airy floor plan features a grandiose great room soaring two levels high and a wall of windows showcasing the backyard’s verdant surroundings. Honoring the chefs in the family, the sky-lit kitchen has ample counter space, open shelves and a suite of top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms are on the main level of the home, including a private suite that easily accesses the back yard. Upstairs, the privately situated primary suite has a customized walk-in closet and spacious en suite bathroom. A balcony connects the primary suite to a private office/library that overlooks the great room.
The home boasts bamboo flooring, newly carpeted stairs and bedroom suites, tiled bathrooms, premier stone countertops, recessed and track lighting, plank and open beam ceilings, dual-pane windows and doors and a dramatic balcony overlook.
Barron Park is a semi-rural, dog-loving, family-friendly neighborhood with eclectic architecture styles, lots of charm and a strong sense of community that goes back to its origins. Once hayfields, strawberry fields and an early settlement for Silicon Valley engineers, this independently minded community is sought after for its more laid-back lifestyle, local schools and proximity to Downtown Los Altos and California Avenue.

Palo Alto has a lot to offer its residents, including tree-lined streets, a thriving downtown, a plethora of parks and open space for recreation, and excellent public schools. The city’s location next to the Stanford University campus gives residents easy access to lectures, extension courses, and other educational opportunities.
The city of about 66,000 incorporated in 1894 and got its name from a 1,000-year-old redwood tree along San Francisquito Creek. Palo Alto residents are highly educated, with nearly 80 percent of those 25 and older holding at least a bachelor’s degree, according to 2013 United States Census Bureau estimates. The median household income is $122,532. Forbes ranked Palo Alto's 94301 ZIP code 24th on its 2014 list of Most Expensive ZIP Codes, with a median home sales price of $3,525,837.
Open-space areas account for nearly one-third of the approximately 25-square-mile city, which boasts more than 30 municipal parks. Only residents and their guests may access the 1,400-acre Foothills Park on Page Mill Road. The city has one of the most active downtowns on the Peninsula, and an array of restaurants and shops line University Avenue and California Avenue. The Stanford Shopping Center is also a popular destination for retail and dining. Free parking is available in municipal lots downtown.
Numerous tech companies are headquartered in Palo Alto, including Hewlett-Packard and Tesla Motors. Many prominent Web businesses and brands, such as Facebook, Pinterest, and PayPal, got their start in the city.
