Nice backyard perfect for planting your veggies and catching the warm California Sun. The home is kept comfortable year-round with central forced heating and has ceiling fans and a whole house/attic fan. Electricity (110V) and gas hookups are available for your laundry needs, conveniently located in the garage, along with a sink. The property also boasts energy-efficient double-pane windows. This home falls within the San Jose Unified Elementary School District. Don't miss the opportunity to make this lovely San Jose residence your own!
