Del Robles may be a good fit for first-time buyers
For those looking to settle down in Silicon Valley, the compact neighborhood of Del Robles offers a suburban experience right at the edge of San Jose, California. “The Del Robles community is a good fit for those who are trying to get started in the Bay Area,” says Erfan Modir, a Realtor with Intero Real Estate Services, Inc., who was born and raised in Cambrian, San Jose. “It’s also close to highways, allowing for an easier commute.” Ranch-style homes from the 1970s and Mediterranean-inspired options from the mid-1980s are accompanied by green lawns, tidy hedges and bursts of pink from crepe myrtle trees. Sidewalks allow residents to walk their children to Del Roble Elementary School or to wander down to Ori-Deli for some Indonesian food.

A high percentage of condos in Del Robles
Del Robles’ median price range is in the mid $900,000s, which is substantially lower than many neighborhoods around San Jose. “There are fewer single-family homes and a higher percentage of condos,” Modir says. “This keeps housing prices more accessible for first-time buyers.” Buyers can find two- and three-bedroom condos within the Colony Green or Blossom Hill developments ranging from $700,000 to $850,000. Single-story ranch-style houses from the 1970s with overhanging eaves and half-timbering accents might sell for around $1.4 million. Additionally, homebuyers may find Mediterranean-style residences from 1985, complete with earth-toned stucco siding and red-tiled roofs valued between $1.2 million and $1.4 million.

Urban farming and gardening at Martial Cottle Park
Just across Chynoweth Avenue is Martial Cottle Park, which spans nearly 300 acres. It was formerly a ranch and farm owned by the Cottle family. In 2003, the family donated the land to the county with the stipulation that it remain an educational agricultural park. Community members can walk or bike the miles of trails, garden in the community plots and learn about farming on one of the last patches of undeveloped land in the area. Volunteer master gardeners have an educational garden that they tend and teach classes in, and there are also sections of the park where 4-H members can raise goats and cattle. “It’s a beautiful place to get exercise,” says Joe Territo, a long-time area resident who runs a small Christmas tree stand at the edge of the park. “You might see coyotes or cottontails, and there are a ton of squirrels.” Just north of Blossom Hill Road, in the Blossom Hill Homes condo community, there are shaded play structures at Plaza de los Cedros, Don Juan Park and Velasco Park.
