Tucked behind tall, mature hedges in one of the Peninsula’s most prestigious neighborhoods, 618 Occidental Avenue is a beautifully private and architecturally captivating, updated 1927 Spanish-colonial revival home in the heart of San Mateo Park.

This timeless home blends classic elegance with modern comfort, offering approximately 1,850 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. Step inside through a scalloped archway to a stunning living room with soaring open-beam ceilings, oak flooring, a beautiful original fireplace, and French doors framing a lush and private front yard.
