Pleasant-living on the eastern side of the Silicon Valley
Resting near the base of the Mount Pleasant Foothills, the community of Mt. Pleasant is a residential piece of San Jose where residents can stay close to the area’s stunning vista views. The vast mountain range lies on the horizon and anchors the neighborhood on the eastern side of the Silicon Valley, while staying out of the bright city spotlight and keeping the bustling streets of downtown just 6 miles away. Mt. Pleasant offers residents a small-town lifestyle with a seemingly endless amount of urban amenities nearby. Residents here enjoy quiet, tree-lined streets and lush green spaces like Mt. Pleasant Park, family-owned businesses like Fonda Colombiana and maintain a close-knit feel through community-oriented events like Community Day. “The community offers no shortage of great parks and some of the best Vietnamese restaurants you will find in the entire country — Also, the nightlife in downtown San Jose is completely underrated,” says Spencer Hsu, San Jose native and Realtor with EXP Realty.
