Heritage is a quiet residential neighborhood in east San Jose.
Why buyers look to Heritage for space and daily convenience
Heritage is a well-established neighborhood in the Evergreen Valley of east San Jose. The neighborhood's classic single-family homes offer larger lots and more living space than similarly priced properties in some of Silicon Valley's most expensive communities. Students can walk and bike to highly rated neighborhood schools, while commuters have close access to major San Jose highways. Local parks and retail areas also support daily routines.
What homes look like and cost in this established area
Single-family homes from the late 1960s to the 1980s line the area's streets. Most are one- and two-story homes in Spanish Revival, contemporary and ranch-style designs. Some have unique architectural elements and additions, like modern-looking slanted roofs, multi-layered gables and large solar panels on the roof.
The area's median sale price is around $1.6 million, with home prices generally ranging from about $1 million to $2.3 million. "You get a lot for your money in this area," says Realtor Kimberly Leal with Keller Williams Realty Silicon Valley. "Homes here are millions less than a lot of smaller homes out in the Mountain View or Los Altos area. Homes also sell very quickly in Evergreen neighborhoods."
Spanish-style homes are common in the neighborhood.
Driveways are usually wide enough to fit multiple cars.
Lots are generally very spacious.

Students have easy access to elementary, middle and high schools
"You've got some pretty good schools around here, which is a major draw for families," Leal says. Heritage is served by the Evergreen and East Side Union High school districts. Most students attend the highly rated Millbrook Elementary School, which is in the heart of the neighborhood. Many kids walk or bike to school each day. The neighborhood is also home to Quimby Oak Middle School, which offers the Lobo School of Innovation, an award-winning project-based learning program. Evergreen Valley High School is just outside the neighborhood, also putting it within biking distance.

What commuting looks like from here to Silicon Valley jobs
The area is moderately walkable and bikeable for local errands, but "people in Evergreen neighborhoods are absolutely commuting to Silicon Valley for work at the tech companies," Leal says. Quimby and Aborn roads are the main routes in and out of the neighborhood. Both lead to East Capitol Expressway and Highway 101, two major commuter corridors for San Jose. While most people commute by car, VTA buses stop along Quimby Road, and the Eastridge Transit Center is nearby.
Highway 101 is a few miles from Heritage.
Locals can take catch the bus in the neighborhood.
