Suburban-living South of the San Francisco Bay
Situated between U.S. Route 161 and U.S. Route 137, the suburban community of Lakewood offers reliable housing with immediate access to the San Francisco Bay and downtown San Jose amenities. Locals here often spend their time taking in the scenic views of the San Francisco Bay at Baylands Park, cheering on the 49ers at Levi Stadium and capitalizing on the quick 8 mile commute into downtown San Jose. With a seemingly endless amount of amenities nearby, locals here rarely have to leave the neighborhood for groceries or entertainment. Lakewood’s accessible housing options and proximity to major attractions make this neighborhood one of Silicon Valley’s best-kept secrets. “The community resides in a very accessible part of Sunnyvale and it’s very beautiful despite the connotations that come along with the idea of trailer parks — The communities are well-kept and don’t have that trailer park feel,” says Tracy Black, long-time local Property Manager.
