Country Club has upscale homes and a golf course near the Santa Cruz Mountains
Country Club is an upscale south San Jose community nestled in the Almaden Valley at the foot of the redwood-capped Santa Cruz Mountains. It’s situated around the prestigious Almaden Golf & Country Club, and many of its homes are perched alongside its greens, fairways and sand traps. Largely built out in the 1950s, '60s and '70s, the neighborhood is sought-after for its classic midcentury homes – and its highly rated public schools. “It’s a peaceful, family-friendly community. People know their neighbors. The homes are on larger lots, and you get some great views of the golf course,” says Realtor Therese Swan of VFlight Real Estate, who’s sold dozens of homes in the area. “You don’t really feel like you’re in San Jose.”
