Explore suburban single-family homes and a welcoming community
The neighborhood is mainly made up of detached single-family homes, ranging from three-bedroom, single-story layouts to five-bedroom, two-story homes. Most were built between the 1960s and early 2000s, but there are a handful of homes from the 2010s and 2020s. Ranch-style houses and minimal traditional two-story homes are the most common styles around; many have Spanish-inspired elements, like beige stucco exteriors and red tile roofs. Other homes have New Traditional-style architecture and color palettes. Prices typically range from $1.2 million to about $2.8 million, plus any monthly HOA fees. Some homes include membership to the Creekside Cabana Club if they fall within the associated HOA boundaries.
When it comes to neighborhood atmosphere, the community is very close-knit. "It's a very welcoming neighborhood where people can be themselves," says Rebecca Jepsen of Golden Gate Sotheby's International Realty. "People are extremely friendly and will wave while you're out walking your dog, but at the same time, there's no judgment if you want to be reclusive."

VTA buses make stops along major roads.
Easy access to Highway 101 and Interstate 680 supports daily commuting
Creekside is in a more suburban part of San Jose, so most people drive to get around. East Capitol Expressway and Highway 101 are the nearest major roads connecting commuters to San Jose and Silicon Valley job centers. "You're also close to Interstate 680, so you have multiple routes to get into town," Jepsen says. Public transit options include VTA buses, which stop along San Felipe and Aborn roads.
Students attend Cadwallader Elementary and a nearby high school
The Evergreen and East Side Union High school districts serve the neighborhood. Most kids attend the highly rated Cadwallader Elementary School, located in the center of the community. The highly rated Silver Creek High School is also nearby, so many students of all ages can walk or bike to school.

Where to find parks, trails and golf clubs nearby
"There's so much greenery in the neighborhood," says Jepsen. "Especially around San Felipe Road, those homes have huge trees surrounding them." Although residential streets are lush, the closest parks are just outside the community. Aborn Park, Evergreen Park and Silver Creek Linear Park offer classic amenities, like playgrounds and picnic areas. Two miles away, Montgomery Hill Park is known for its winding trail through natural grasslands, rolling hills and scattered oaks. The neighborhood is also 4 miles from Silver Creek Valley Country Club, a popular private golf course.
Winding, hilly trails stretch through Montgomery Hill Park.
