About this home

Step into historic neighborhood charm with this fully updated, move-in ready home. The interior shines with abundant natural light, anchored by a bright chef's kitchen featuring a unique garden window, quartzite counters, vintage-style tile, new stainless-steel appliances, and under-cabinet lighting. The newly remodeled bathroom seamlessly blends classic elegance and modern luxury with hexagonal floor tile, crisp wainscoting, and a striking wallpapered accent wall. Climate control is effortless with a multi-zone mini-split system, while durable vinyl plank floors bring a warm, wood-grain finish throughout. Outside, a freshly painted exterior, garage, and picket fence frame your private oasis. A magnificent oak tree provides shade over the spacious yard, an entertaining patio, and a detached garage. Conveniently located on a quiet street, walk to historic Japantown for wonderful restaurants, local markets, and cultural festivals. Minutes from downtown San Jose with easy freeway access, this property offers an unmatched Silicon Valley lifestyle and convenience.
