About 144 N Melwood Ave #2

Discover a masterful 2026 restoration of a Spanish Colonial adobe casita, finished with traditional smooth lime stucco. This historic Menlo Park gem blends "Southwest Modern" soul with designer luxury. Inside, original rough-sawn rafters and tongue-and-groove Douglas fir ceilings rest on artisan-applied plaster walls and terracotta floors. Curated with authentic West Elm Mid-Century furniture, the space features a dedicated secretary desk workspace with high-speed hardwired Ethernet and Wi-Fi, a plush Queen bed with a Leesa Oasis Chill Hybrid mattress for premium support and designer sconces of pressed glass and natural brass. The Chef's Kitchen boasts veined quartz countertops, a full size microwave and a gas range, complemented by a 55" Smart TV and whisper-quiet mini-split AC. Step onto your private furnished paver patio, shaded by mature vegetation and a Valencia orange tree. Located on a quiet Franklin Street cul-de-sac, you are steps from the dining and shops of the Mercado District and MSA Annex and the free Sun Link streetcar. Healthcare professionals will appreciate being less than a mile from St. Mary's Hospital, two blocks from El Rio Health and a streetcar ride from HealthOn Broadway and Banner Health.
