Imagine starting your morning with a walk through the Municipal Rose Garden, just one block from your front door, before coming home to a space that genuinely earns the word home.
Set on a quiet street in one of San Jose's most established neighborhoods, 1728 Topeka Ave has been thoughtfully updated while holding onto everything that made it worth updating. Refinished hardwood floors in the Living Room, fresh paint on every surface, and new light fixtures run throughout. The kitchen features a farmhouse sink, butcher block countertops, and a skylight that fills the space with natural light. The living room fireplace is flanked by full-wall built-in bookshelves that make you want to stay a while.
Both bathrooms have been beautifully remodeled with quality fixtures and tilework that feel intentional, not just updated.
Outside, the backyard is a genuine extension of the living space. A modern louvered pergola covers a paver patio surrounded by mature landscaping, the kind of outdoor setup that gets used year-round in the Bay Area.
Single-story living, a detached two-car garage, and French doors off the primary bedroom round out a floor plan that simply works.
Santana Row and Valley Fair are minutes away, but on most days you may not want to leave the neighborhood.
