Discover a welcoming, tree-lined community at the heart of the Peninsula—minutes to Stanford, Sand Hill Road, and major tech corridors. Menlo Park blends classic residential streets with a lively downtown, excellent parks, and easy transit access, making it one of Silicon Valley’s most convenient places to call home.
Browse current Menlo Park homes for sale, including properties in Sharon Heights, West Menlo Park, Central Menlo, Allied Arts, Downtown Menlo Park, Linfield Oaks, Felton Gables, Menlo Oaks, The Willows, Belle Haven, and surrounding Menlo Park residential areas.
Menlo Park is one of Silicon Valley's most varied residential real estate markets. Homes range from properties approaching and exceeding $10 million in Central Menlo and Sharon Heights to smaller homes and redevelopment opportunities in neighborhoods closer to US-101 and the eastern side of the city.
That range makes citywide statistics useful, but only to a point. A home in Sharon Heights, West Menlo Park, Central Menlo, Allied Arts, The Willows, or Belle Haven may compete within a very different buyer pool and price range. Lot size, school district, jurisdiction, proximity to Stanford, redevelopment potential, condition, and neighborhood character can all materially affect value.
This page is designed as a continuously updated Menlo Park real estate resource. Milad Real Estate tracks current listings, recent home sales, neighborhood-level market activity, and trends throughout the year.

Last updated: November 2026
The October 2026 MLS snapshot supplied to Milad Real Estate contained 35 single-family property records across the broader Menlo Park market.
At the time represented by the data, the market included properties in active, pending, sold, cancelled, and active-contingent status.
October 2026 Market Snapshot | Properties |
|---|---|
Active | 20 |
Active Contingent | 1 |
Pending | 8 |
Sold | 4 |
Cancelled | 2 |
Among the four properties marked sold in the October snapshot, reported sale prices ranged from approximately $2.45 million to $6.223 million. The median reported sale price was approximately $4.025 million, while the average was approximately $4.18 million.
The median days on market among those four closed transactions was approximately 9 days. That relatively short marketing period illustrates the continuing ability of appropriately positioned Menlo Park properties to attract buyers quickly, although the experience varies substantially by neighborhood, price point, condition, and property type.
Address | Area | Reported Sale Price | Beds | Baths | Living Area | Lot Size | DOM |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
600 Wallea Drive | Central Menlo | $6,223,000 | 3 | 3 | 2,180 sq. ft. | 10,271 sq. ft. | 15 |
824 Harvard Avenue | Allied Arts / Downtown | $4,800,000 | 3 | 2 | 2,010 sq. ft. | 8,400 sq. ft. | 9 |
1130 Cloud Avenue | West Menlo Park / University Heights / County-Alameda | $3,250,000 | 3 | 2 | 1,990 sq. ft. | 7,000 sq. ft. | 0 |
1340 Johnson Street | Allied Arts / Downtown | $2,450,000 | 2 | 2 | 1,420 sq. ft. | 2,124 sq. ft. | 9 |
October illustrates one of the most important characteristics of Menlo Park real estate: there is no single Menlo Park price point.
The October snapshot included properties ranging from below $1 million to approximately $6 million. At the same time, the broader 2026 sales data includes transactions above $10 million in Central Menlo, Sharon Heights, and other western portions of the Menlo Park market.
Location explains only part of that difference. Buyers also place substantial value on lot size, school district, walkability, proximity to Stanford, condition, architectural quality, redevelopment potential, and whether the property is within the City of Menlo Park or an adjacent unincorporated San Mateo County area with a Menlo Park mailing address.
The market also shows meaningful differences in lot size. Some western Menlo Park and Sharon Heights properties sit on lots exceeding 10,000 or 15,000 square feet, while homes near Downtown, The Willows, Belle Haven, and other neighborhoods may occupy significantly smaller parcels.
For buyers and sellers, this means that citywide median prices should be used as context rather than as a substitute for neighborhood- and property-specific analysis.
The 2026 MLS information supplied to Milad Real Estate contains hundreds of listing records across Menlo Park and surrounding Menlo Park-address residential areas. Because properties may be relisted, cancelled, withdrawn, or appear under more than one MLS record during the year, the total number of listing records should not be interpreted as the number of unique homes sold.
The closed-sale data nevertheless shows an exceptionally broad market, from homes below $1 million in parts of eastern Menlo Park to transactions above $10 million in Central Menlo, Sharon Heights, and western Menlo Park.
Area | Sold Records Shown in Supplied Data | Approx. Reported Sold-Price Range |
|---|---|---|
Alpine Road / Stanford Weekend Acres | 2 | $2.151M – $2.5M |
Sharon Heights / Stanford Hills | 19 | $2.625M – $11.75M |
West Menlo Park / University Heights / County-Alameda | 47 | Approximately $2.385M – $13.1M |
Central Menlo | 41 | $3M – $13.5M |
Allied Arts / Downtown | 23 | $1.75M – $9.5M |
Linfield Oaks / Middlefield to El Camino | 18 | $1.349M – $5.778M |
Felton Gables | 1 | $6.75M |
Menlo Oaks | 9 | Approximately $3.4M – $7.025M |
The Willows / O'Connor Area | 25 | Approximately $1.81M – $4.95M |
Flood Park Area | 15 | Approximately $1.837M – $3.736M |
East of US-101 / Belle Haven | 21 | Approximately $850K – $1.93M |
County / Fair Oaks Area | 23 | Approximately $1.401M – $6.68M |
These ranges illustrate why a single Menlo Park median can obscure more than it reveals. The difference between neighborhoods can be several million dollars, and even within the same neighborhood, condition, lot size, school assignment, redevelopment potential, and architectural quality can create substantial pricing differences.
Several transactions in the supplied 2026 data illustrate the upper end of the Menlo Park market.
Address | Area | Reported Sale Price | Living Area | Lot Size |
|---|---|---|---|---|
1650 Oak Avenue | Central Menlo | $13,500,000 | 7,429 sq. ft. | 15,218 sq. ft. |
2171 Clayton Drive | West Menlo Park / County-Alameda | $13,100,000 | 6,885 sq. ft. | 15,656 sq. ft. |
595 Hobart Street | Central Menlo | $12,820,000 | 5,913 sq. ft. | 11,187 sq. ft. |
1806 Doris Drive | Central Menlo | $12,000,000 | 6,415 sq. ft. | 12,000 sq. ft. |
2319 Warner Range Avenue | Sharon Heights / Stanford Hills | $11,750,000 | 7,320 sq. ft. | 12,500 sq. ft. |
2315 Warner Range Avenue | Sharon Heights / Stanford Hills | $11,495,000 | 6,402 sq. ft. | 12,048 sq. ft. |
1147 Windsor Way | Central Menlo | $11,125,000 | 5,932 sq. ft. | 10,206 sq. ft. |
These sales also show that Menlo Park's highest prices are not concentrated in a single neighborhood. Central Menlo, Sharon Heights, Stanford-adjacent areas, and portions of the broader West Menlo Park market can all support significant luxury transactions when the property, lot, location, and improvements align with buyer demand.
For market analysis, Milad Real Estate follows several distinct Menlo Park and surrounding Menlo Park-address residential areas. The names below are used rather than MLS area numbers because buyers and sellers are generally more interested in the neighborhood itself than the internal MLS designation.
The supplied 2026 data shows relatively limited transaction activity in this area, with closed sales around the low-to-mid $2 million range and current offerings reaching higher depending on lot size and improvements.
Because inventory is limited, individual transactions can have an outsized effect on neighborhood statistics.
Sharon Heights and Stanford Hills represent one of Menlo Park's higher-value residential submarkets. The 2026 data includes closed sales from approximately the mid-$2 million range to more than $11 million.
The upper end includes substantial homes on larger lots, while townhomes, smaller homes, and properties on more compact parcels create a broader price spectrum.
This is why Sharon Heights should not be evaluated using a single neighborhood price per square foot.
The broader West Menlo Park and University Heights market contains some of the area's strongest residential pricing, including 2026 transactions above $13 million.
This area requires an additional layer of due diligence because some properties with Menlo Park mailing addresses are located in unincorporated San Mateo County rather than within the incorporated City of Menlo Park.
Jurisdiction can affect zoning, permitting, development standards, and other property-specific considerations. Buyers considering remodeling, an ADU, or major redevelopment should confirm the governing jurisdiction before relying on City of Menlo Park development rules.
Central Menlo has produced some of the highest-priced Menlo Park sales in the 2026 data. The supplied records include transactions from approximately $3 million to $13.5 million.
Central Menlo contains a wide mix of older homes, extensively remodeled properties, and substantial newer construction. Lot sizes also vary, although many properties occupy parcels around 10,000 square feet or larger.
Location near downtown Menlo Park, Stanford, schools, parks, and major Peninsula employment centers contributes to strong buyer demand.
Allied Arts and the residential areas surrounding Downtown Menlo Park combine proximity to Santa Cruz Avenue, Stanford, Caltrain, and local amenities with predominantly residential streets.
The 2026 data shows a broad range of property types and prices, from smaller homes below $2 million to substantial newer construction reaching approximately $9.5 million.
Lot sizes are generally more compact than in parts of Central Menlo or Sharon Heights, making design quality and efficient use of the parcel especially important.
This area includes a mixture of detached homes, newer infill development, townhome-style properties, and smaller-lot housing.
The 2026 sales data spans from approximately $1.35 million to more than $5.7 million, illustrating the diversity of housing even within a relatively compact part of Menlo Park.
Felton Gables is a small residential enclave with limited turnover. Because comparatively few properties come to market, individual transactions should be interpreted carefully rather than treated as representative of a large sample.
The supplied 2026 data includes a $6.75 million closed sale at 202 Felton Drive and a current listing at 248 Lennox Avenue.
Menlo Oaks includes larger lots and a more wooded residential environment than many parts of central Menlo Park.
The supplied 2026 data shows closed transactions from approximately $3.4 million to slightly above $7 million, with lot size and improvement quality contributing significantly to value.
The Willows and O'Connor area form another distinct market, with strong access to Palo Alto, downtown Menlo Park, US-101, and major technology employers.
The 2026 data includes sold properties ranging from below $2 million to just under $5 million. Many parcels are smaller than those found in western Menlo Park, making condition, layout, new construction, and location within the neighborhood particularly important.
The Flood Park area includes residential streets near Flood Park, Bay Road, and Middlefield Road. The supplied 2026 data shows many transactions in the approximately $2 million to upper-$3 million range.
Lot sizes are generally smaller than in Menlo Park's western luxury submarkets, although individual properties vary considerably.
The market east of US-101 differs materially from western Menlo Park. The supplied 2026 data includes many single-family sales between approximately $850,000 and $2 million.
That makes this area an important part of understanding Menlo Park's overall housing market, but its pricing should not be blended indiscriminately with Central Menlo, Sharon Heights, or West Menlo Park when valuing an individual property.
Properties in the County and Fair Oaks area may carry Menlo Park mailing addresses while being governed by San Mateo County rather than the City of Menlo Park.
The supplied 2026 data shows a broad range of transactions, from approximately $1.4 million to $6.68 million.
Because jurisdiction matters, buyers should verify planning, zoning, permitting, school, and utility information for the individual property rather than assuming that City of Menlo Park standards apply.
Two Menlo Park homes with similar square footage can sell for dramatically different prices.
Important factors include:
For these reasons, citywide average and median prices are useful indicators of direction, but they should not be used alone to value an individual Menlo Park property.
Buyers considering a property for expansion, major remodeling, an ADU, or redevelopment should evaluate more than the existing home.
Important considerations can include:
Menlo Park updated its ADU ordinance in 2026, and State housing laws continue to affect the range of residential-development options available on qualifying properties. The City is also continuing to address its SB 9 regulations in light of subsequent State legislation.
Because the rules are property-specific and continue to evolve, redevelopment potential should be independently verified before it is used to justify a purchase price.
Milad Real Estate will update this page monthly to track changes in:
Neighborhood-level analysis is particularly important in Menlo Park because changes in which areas account for the month's sales can materially move the citywide median even when underlying neighborhood values have changed relatively little.
There is no single useful Menlo Park price point. The 2026 MLS data reviewed by Milad Real Estate includes single-family transactions ranging from below $1 million in portions of the eastern market to more than $13 million in Central Menlo and western Menlo Park.
Neighborhood, lot size, condition, school district, jurisdiction, and redevelopment potential can all have a substantial effect on value.
The 2026 data shows some of the highest transactions in Central Menlo, Sharon Heights / Stanford Hills, and the broader West Menlo Park / University Heights market. Individual luxury properties in other neighborhoods can also command significant prices.
Menlo Park includes neighborhoods with very different lot sizes, school districts, housing stock, access to Stanford, walkability, jurisdiction, and redevelopment potential. A citywide median therefore combines properties that may compete in very different markets.
Marketing time varies substantially by neighborhood, price point, condition, and pricing strategy. In the October 2026 snapshot supplied to Milad Real Estate, the four properties marked sold had a median marketing period of approximately nine days. That single month's figure should not be assumed to represent every Menlo Park property or price range.
Not entirely. Some properties commonly associated with West Menlo Park or carrying Menlo Park mailing addresses are located in unincorporated San Mateo County. Buyers should confirm the governing jurisdiction of the specific property because zoning, permitting, and development regulations may differ.
Yes, subject to applicable State law and City or County development standards. Menlo Park adopted an updated ADU ordinance in 2026. Requirements vary based on the type and size of ADU, the existing improvements, lot configuration, setbacks, and other property-specific factors.
Qualifying single-family properties may be eligible for development under California's SB 9 framework, including certain two-unit developments or urban lot splits. Eligibility and development potential depend on the individual property and applicable State and local requirements.
Buyers should investigate jurisdiction, zoning, lot dimensions, setbacks, easements, tree constraints, utilities, existing structures, development standards, ADU potential, and possible SB 9 eligibility. A survey and professional development review can be particularly useful when future construction is an important component of value.
No. Some properties with Menlo Park mailing addresses are located in unincorporated San Mateo County. This is especially important in portions of West Menlo Park and the County / Fair Oaks market. Always verify jurisdiction for the individual property.

Menlo Park real estate requires neighborhood-level analysis. A property in Sharon Heights should not automatically be compared with one in The Willows, Belle Haven, Allied Arts, or Central Menlo simply because all carry a Menlo Park address.
Milad Real Estate focuses on Menlo Park, Atherton, Palo Alto, and surrounding Silicon Valley communities, with particular attention to property value, lot characteristics, redevelopment potential, neighborhood differences, and current market conditions.
