 Located on a quiet street and surrounded by friendly neigh bors, this 1,100+ sq. foot  three-bedroom, two-bath home on a 5,000 sq, ft. lot, lets you come home to a serene setting yet is just two blocks from top-rated Carden El Encanta (K-8) private school; a five-minute walk to shopping and restaurants offering five different ethnic cuisines and the best  donuts in the county (Stans!) as well as a public park and library; a ten-minute drive to chic Santana Row; and a "no-commute" of fewer than three miles to many major companies such as Intel, National Semiconductor, and AMD.

A magnificent magnolia tree and lovely Japanese maple grace the front yard; the front of the wood-sided home is partially draped in a lush lavender clematis vine. The path leading to the front door brings you past a sheltered patio perfect for a couple chairs and settee and ends in a charming vine-covered entrance way.

Inside, the home’s six Eichler-styled rooms are freshly painted white and filled with light from many windows, several of unusual shape, and huge skylights.  The living room with wood-burning fireplace, dining area, and study have new Halogen track lighting and oyster-cover carpeting over a premium pad and flow together for a spacious feel.  The dining area adjoins a crisp white kitchen, which features a skylight; generous counter space; white vinyl tile flooring; white cabinetry  with brushed-steel hardware matching the brushed-steel Jenn-Air side-by-side refrigerator, dishwasher and above-counter microwave; gas range; Grohe faucet; and glass door leading to a patio and hot tub. Along the hallway to the bedrooms, bi-fold doors give easy access to washer, dryer, and new water heater.  The three bedrooms have plenty of natural light and closet space; the master bedroom bath has flooring of opal ceramic tile and a tub-shower; the ceramic tiling of the family bath , also with a tub-shower, is pale turquoise.

The finished garage can also be used for a playroom or study.  Wood-fenced side and back yards are largely paved but boast an automatic sprinkler system and a handsome pine tree. Utility costs are surprisingly low, thanks to double-pane windows throughout, gas appliances, and City of Santa Clara water, electric, and sewage service.
