Remarks

Experience the perfect balance of style, comfort, and downtown living. Tucked at the end of a lovely tree-lined street in the vibrant Arts District, this spacious blend of traditional Craftsman elements with modern updates offers an abundance of thoughtfully designed space. Built in 1999, it's one of only a handful of newer single-family homes in the downtown area - blending modern convenience with classic charm. The open-concept floor plan features hardwood floors, natural light, and seamless flow for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen, with its large island and walk-in pantry, adjoins a comfortable family room with a cozy fireplace. Upstairs, the generous primary suite is filled with light and offers a walk in closet, an additional closet and a bright bath with soaking tub and dual sinks. Two additional bedrooms and a flexible bonus room upstairs provide space for kids, work, guests, or creativity. Enjoy a private backyard, owned solar panels, dual-pane windows, laundry room, and a two-car tandem garage with Level 2 EV charging and overhead storage. Just moments from The Children's Discovery Museum, galleries, theaters, restaurants, farmers markets, festivals, and walking trails, this rare single-family home offers the best of San Jose's exciting downtown vibrancy.
