8 BR 8 bath, Great for Groups/Retreats, Complete New Renovation, Walk Downtown

This San Mateo lower Baywood neighborhood location is great because of the closeness to downtown San Mateo with all the restaurants, shopping, movie theatre, medical center, public park, and Japanese garden while still being in a very quiet upscale neighborhood.

The City of San Mateo and our neighborhood especially are quiet, temperate, friendly, and situated in the heart of Silicon Valley.

Lovely Home Great location of the Home
Lovely Home Great location Cameras Inside the Home. Owner did not disclose that there are camera in the living areas of the home. Lounge, Kitchen, second Lounge. Outside we can totally understand inside NOT good and against VRBO policy. The property is awesome apart from that our group of medical professionals found it perfect. We were really happy with everything and the home owner except the cameras. House looks exactly like the photos really nice.

Great spacious property
Beautiful neighborhood, plenty of sleeping space and amenities. Temperature control can be tough given no access to control. There’s a nosy entitled imposing neighbor who can be a lot, but overall wonderful space.
