The oversized family room opens onto the thoughtfully designed outdoor lounge area and freshly landscaped backyard. The home also contains a bonus room and gym, a two-car garage, and ample storage space throughout. New landscaping enhances the beautiful exterior of the home. 236 Amherst is a comfortable and polished home within walking distance to the best of downtown San Mateo.
