Prometheus Opens 172-Unit Harken Apartments in Los Altos

By Multifamily Newsroom™

Prometheus Real Estate Group announced the opening of Harken, a 172-unit apartment project located at 5150 El Camino Real in Los Altos. According to the company, this represents the first new apartment development in Los Altos in decades.

The property will feature one-bedroom and two-bedroom units averaging 1,134 square feet each. The development includes 29 below-market-rate affordable housing units.

"Due to the lack of construction in recent years, it's charming downtown, great neighborhoods, and strong school district, it's been nearly impossible to find a place to live in Los Altos," said Don Peterson, Senior Vice President at Prometheus Real Estate Group. "With all of this in mind, Harken was designed to offer something different: a boutique experience with quality materials and thoughtful details throughout."

The property's design incorporates natural light and warm wood tones throughout the units and common areas. Amenities include a private listening lounge, two lobbies, and a clubhouse available for work or gatherings.

Fitness facilities include a 24/7 gym equipped with Technogym cardio and strength-training equipment and a multi-functional training rack. Outdoor amenities feature a pool, a 20-by-10-foot spa, and towel service.

Harken is located less than 2 miles from Almond Elementary School, Ardis G. Egan Junior High School, and Los Altos High School. The property sits less than 2 miles from the San Antonio Caltrain station, providing access to San Francisco and San Jose.

The development is positioned between the downtowns of Los Altos and Mountain View.

Leasing begins this month, with occupancy expected to start in November. The waiting list is currently open, with tours scheduled for later this year.

Prometheus Real Estate Group operates as a private multifamily operator in the Bay Area.
