About this home

Tucked into Santa Clara's Old Quad, this light-filled home offers 3 bedrooms (county records reflect 2; buyer to verify) an unexpectedly magical setting beyond the front door. Across the street, Carmelite Gardens offer peaceful, shady walking paths, olive groves and rose arbor. At home, the sense of tranquility continues through a deep lot and private backyard that feels like a secret garden. Seven fruit-bearing trees, greenery & huge 2 car garage - a property with personality, possibility and space. Bright, happy and welcoming w/refinished hardwood, lux plank floors, fresh paint and stylish lighting. The kitchen provides practical workspace & dining area flows naturally into the living room. Full bath w/shower over tub, inside laundry and central heat and A/C add everyday comfort and function. Big in personality, a home that feels joyful w/sunlit interior to the fruit trees and hidden garden, warmth at every turn and a delightful sense there's much more than meets the eye. The deep lot offers huge potential to expand, reimagine or renovate, capitalizing on Santa Clara's most established neighborhood. In the Heart of the Valley, near SC Univ & ever-popular Farmers Market, with convenient access to major employers, transportation, and delish dining on El Camino and Stevens Creek.
