Notable among the topics of attention this week… On September 20, a mansion that was 6,400 square feet in size and included panoramic views of the San Francisco Bay could be purchased for $7.85 million.
The residence was surrounded by mature gardens, towering redwoods, a waterfall, and a koi pond. Atherton’s first female councilmember and mayor, Nanette Chapman, was elected in 1980 and served on the council for twenty years before moving to the Woodside property.
The custom-built mansion, which is located next to the Menlo Country Club in Woodside, was originally the residence of Nanette Chapman.
The home was “built for comfort and entertaining on a regular basis,” as stated in the description for the property for sale. It has a great room with vaulted ceilings, an octagonal skylight, a fireplace, a wet bar, and a deck that overlooks the mountains, the bay, and the property’s gardens and private nature walk.
Additionally, it has an elevator that takes guests down to the lower guest quarters, a formal entrance hall, and a formal library.
