Remarks

Welcome to 1691 Topeka Avenue, a distinctive 4-bed, 3-bath residence in San Jose's cherished Rose Garden neighborhood! Designed around a central slate-tile atrium, this 2,106 sq ft home is bathed in natural light while offering exceptional privacy and architectural character throughout. Three beautifully updated full bathrooms provide modern style and comfort, while the thoughtfully designed kitchen-remodeled in a previous era-delivers both functionality and timeless charm. A long stamped concrete driveway leads to a oversized detached 2-car garage with workshop or flex space, ideal for creative projects, storage, or future expansion potential. The front yard features abundantly producing rose trees, while the peaceful backyard includes a lush lawn bordered by four mature red grapevines. A rooftop solar array-paid off at closing-will dramatically slash your PG&E bills and enhance long-term energy efficiency and sustainability. Located near the renown San Jose Municipal Rose Garden, Library, and the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum and distinguished Abraham Lincoln High. The nearby Alameda corridor adds lifestyle appeal with an eclectic mix of cafes, restaurants, Whole Foods Market, local businesses, and shops-all close at hand in this highly desirable, well-connected neighborhood.
