About This Home
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of the Rose Gardens most distinguished estates. On a commanding 1.155 acre parcel (the largest residential lot in the Rose Garden) stands the historic Wilder-Hait Mansion. This Modern English Tudor Revival is awe-inspiring in both scale and detail. From the steeply pitched gables & decorative half-timbering to the tall, grouped windows & arched entry, every element evokes the timeless elegance of its English roots. Diamond-pane leaded glass, ornate scuppers, multi-lite casements w/iron hinges & integral stucco fencing w/stone valls all reflect a craftsmanship and artistry rarely seen today. The estate flows seamlessly into lush, landscaped grounds. Towering redwoods frame sweeping lawns, courtyards, a sparkling pool and cabana. The setting is nothing short of extraordinary. An entertainers paradise, perfectly suited for grand celebrations, philanthropic galas & twilight garden parties. This is not just a home. It's a piece of San Jose history. A grand estate awaiting those with vision, taste and an appreciation for the rarest opportunities. A chance to own a residence that is at once architecturally distinguished, socially significant and wholly irreplaceable. For those who dream in character and think in legacy... this is your moment.
