About This Home

Tucked away just a block from SRJC, this charming, single-level, 1940s bungalow blends vintage character with thoughtful modern updates. Original hardwood floors highlight its timeless appeal, while a stylish 2021 kitchen remodel brings fresh functionality. The exterior was re-sided and painted about five years ago, adding to its inviting curb appeal. With 3 bedrooms (one does not have a closet, so think guest room, office, den), this home works whether you're stepping into homeownership or adding to your investment portfolio. Outside, the oversized, sunny backyard is a blank slate with fruit trees already in place. Build out your dream garden, throw in a firepit, or create the ultimate outdoor hangout. Bonus points for the detached approx. 110 sq.ft. bonus room with electricity, ideal for your home office, gym, art studio, workshop or gear storage. Tons of perks come with this location - you're close to schools, shopping, restaurants, transit, and freeway access - all the essentials for a connected, convenient lifestyle. This bungalow is ready for its next chapter - is it yours?
