About This Home

As of May 2025

Brimming with vintage charm and timeless elegance, this beautifully preserved Victorian home sits on a corner lot, surrounded by a mature garden with a custom Redwood bridge. Original highlights include antique light fixtures, picture molding, and solid 5-paneled doors. The curved sitting room, along with the inviting living and dining rooms, offer warm and welcoming gathering spaces. The kitchen remodeled in 2012 blends classic character with modern convenience, featuring custom cabinetry, Corian counters, built-in refrigerator, and GE Profile oven & cooktop. A spacious and sunlit breakfast room with built-in hutch is the ideal space for morning coffee and informal dining. The front porch offers a tranquil spot to take in the lush surroundings. Two ground-floor bedrooms share a Jack and Jill bath, while a designer-finished bath adds a whimsical touch. Upstairs leads to the primary suite and an additional bedroom, while the downstairs family room offers additional entertaining space. Completing this timeless retreat is a detached 2-car garage and an enchanting outdoor setting, perfect for those who appreciate both beauty and history. Coveted downtown Los Gatos location close to shopping, fine dining, Bachman Park, as well as hiking & biking trails. Outstanding Los Gatos Schools.
