Property Description
Tucked into one of the most desirable pockets of Menlo Park, 543 Encina Ave offers a rare opportunity that is increasingly difficult to find in the mid-Peninsula: a subdivided parcel in a premier, established neighborhood with the flexibility to build two custom residences. Positioned on what is widely considered the best stretch of the street, the property sits just steps from the Atherton border close enough that the distinction between the two communities nearly disappears. In fact, youre less than nine homes away from Atherton, placing you in one of the most prestigious residential corridors in the region. The setting is defined by mature oak trees that frame the site with natural character, shade, and privacy. With the lot already subdivided, the property is ideally suited for a developer, end-user, or multi-generational build strategy. Each parcel offers the flexibility to design and construct a fully custom residence, including the option for an ADU perfect for extended family or rental income potential. This is a true location-first opp. The combination of street position, tree-lined setting, proximity to Atherton, and development flexibility makes it a standout offering in the peninsula luxury build market. In short: prime land, premier setting and maximum upside.
