Enjoy California ranch-style suburban living the way you like it, in this fixer-upper with three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Here's your chance to take a gently-used home, in a great location, and turn it into the home you've always wanted and needed.

Located on a large, tree-shaded corner lot in a quiet, family-oriented neighborhood, this sweet home is surrounded by an easy-care, drought-resistant garden. Its wonderful location is conveniently close to major transportation, Kaiser Hospital, local shopping centers, the upscale shopping malls Santana Row and Valley Fair, an array of exotic restaurants and major employers, and three beautiful parks. Just down the street you'll find the 52-acre Central Park with its tennis courts, softball fields, lake, amphitheater, and world-class International Swim Center that has been home to both Olympic swimmers as well as recreational swimmers.

This property is a great value for do-it-yourselfers, especially since it comes with several dramatic architectural touches that are usually found in custom homes. Walk through the front door with its stained glass inset and you're in a sizable living room made even larger by a handsome 9 1/2-foot tall, beamed ceiling. Its huge, 13 1/2-inch center beam leads your eye through the space to a classic wood-burning brick fireplace with brass surround - giving the room the atmosphere of a cozy cabin somewhere far away from Silicon Valley. The living room is full of light, as it is flanked with a picture window on one side and a double sliding glass door on the other.

Walk through that double sliding glass door into the backyard and you're in your own vacation get-away. With a little help, the yard's kidney-shaped pool, which is capped by Mediterranean tiles and faux-igneous rocks, and the adjoining jacuzzi will be an inviting place for your friends and family to have fun. Cross the attractive flagstone patio, through the expansive pool decking, and you're in your own orchard, complete with apple, lemon and persimmon trees. Those of you with a boat, R-V, or other "weekend-projects" will love the locking, fenced area at the property's end, that is large enough to hide a vehicle or serve as extra storage.

Getting hungry? Walk through the dining-room's garden door and once again enjoy the cheery light in this charming detached dining room - then admire the tall, beautiful beam ceilings that continue throughout the home's open floor plan. Notice the breakfast bar separating the kitchen and dining room, and giving you more informal eating space. The breakfast bar's half-height also lets cooks socialize easily with family and friends while preparing masterpieces. Everyone will appreciate the kitchen's purified water filter system.

Spoil yourself with a master bedroom that has an attached bath. If you'd like, take up the rugs and enjoy the wood floors beneath. Gardeners will enjoy the picture windows in each of the three bedrooms that let light and garden views into the house. Best of all, storage has been planned throughout the house. Each of the three bedrooms has a closet with double sliding doors and there are two sizable hall linen closets for easy storage. Even more storage shelving is available in the two-car garage.

Residents are eligible to attend the Santa Clara Unified School District's excellent Sutter Elementary, Buchser Middle and Santa Clara High Schools. Verify space availability with the school district. These facts are believed accurate but NOT guaranteed.
