Atherton, California

Lloyden Park
Atherton

A rare 1940s Atherton subdivision of 86 homes on third-acre lots — storybook Tudors, the town’s only sidewalks, and two ‘Homes of the Future’ from the 1939 Golden Gate International Exposition.

The neighborhood

Lloyden Park homes for sale in a singular setting.

Lloyden Park is one of Atherton’s most distinctive neighborhoods: an 86-home subdivision built in the 1940s, bounded by El Camino Real, Wilburn Avenue, Lloyden Drive and the railroad tracks. Its storybook Tudors and Mediterranean homes sit on uniform third-acre lots — and it remains the only Atherton neighborhood with sidewalks, curbs, gutters and underground utilities.

Buyers choose Lloyden Park for its walkability and character — a genuine neighborhood feel rare in Atherton, plus the famous ‘Homes of the Future’ built for the 1939 Golden Gate International Exposition and a Willis Polk carriage house among its landmarks. For sellers, the pitch is uniqueness: nothing else in 94027 looks or lives like this.
