About Los Altos Hills
Originally developed in the early 20th century as an upscale retreat for wealthy city dwellers, The wooded hillsides and peaceful atmosphere found in Los Altos Hills attract those who seek luxury, privacy, and tranquility.
Strict zoning regulations dictate that lot sizes must be at least an acre, homes must be set back from the property lines, and there must be easements for public pathways. The result is a community that feels open and semi-rural - a far cry from the hustle and bustle of nearby cities. That said, Los Altos Hill's convenient location means residents can drive to Palo Alto, Mountain View, and Menlo Park within minutes.
Locals are often seen meandering through the community on bikes or horseback, and the local system of pathways connects all Los Altos Hills homes with over 80 miles of scenic trails. Residents enjoy an active lifestyle, and Los Altos Hills offers easy access to fantastic natural areas. Byrne Preserve lies within the town limits, offering 50 acres of scenic open space to explore. Beyond the community's eastern border, 1,400-acre Foothills Nature Preserve features trails running through woodland, chaparrals, and past lakes and streams.
Although Los Altos Hills is strictly residential, there's plenty of great shopping and dining nearby, most notably in the charming, village-like downtown area of Los Altos. Here, residents can find cafes, boutiques, wine bars, and a great selection of restaurants.
