Fall in love with this quintessential, Victorian home that blends the historic character and period details of classic Queen Anne architecture with the modern amenities and spaciousness expected of today's accomplished individuals. Raised circa 1880, this historic home began its journey in the first small segment of land representing the initial incorporation of the Town of Los Gatos in 1880. It was lovingly cared for and eventually first expanded in the 1950s. With a renowned architect, Tom Sloan, and Bonsai Builders, the previous owners undertook the monumental task of completely reconstructing the home to provide the space and amenities that successful families of Silicon Valley now demand. The metamorphosis spanned several years as the team worked to balance the character of the old while satisfying the modern demands. The current owners continued to enhance the property adding a standalone Victorian conservatory-themed art studio using the same architect and builders for a harmonious feel with the house. This 300+ sq ft building includes unique wood flooring, a blend of natural light and accent lighting for a gallery experience, along with a heating/AC unit and sink. External landscaping was also added with Kentucky bluestone patio in the backyard and natural plantings surrounding the house. An upgrade to the house foundation was completed in 2016. The resulting construction of 3,300+/- square feet containing virtually anything you would expect in a home with a quaint, front facade that retained the period details and makes this home so special. Today, nearly 130 years later it sits, in its expanded grandeur, still in one of the most coveted parts of town, a mere three blocks from the teeming life of a vibrant downtown but worlds away in its secluded, serene locale.
