Thoughtfully updated Rose Garden home where timeless craftsmanship meets modern design. Beautiful interiors defined by Brazilian Chestnut floors, matte-textured walls, and abundant natural light from skylights and tall ceilings. The chefs kitchen pairs form with function, showcasing Carrara marble counters, Viking appliances and wine refrigerator - ideal for everyday living and entertaining. Each bathroom has been tastefully remodeled with Restoration Hardware vanities and designer touches, including a Mr. Steam steam shower in the primary for a spa-like retreat at home. A built-in Murphy bed in the second bedroom adds versatility, making the space equally suited for use as an office, guest room, or both. Additional comforts include a fireplace for cozy evenings, central air and heating, convenient inside laundry with washer/dryer included, and a newly re-landscaped backyard with mature privacy trees. The floor plan offers both an eat-in kitchen and a formal dining space, giving you flexibility to host or enjoy quiet meals at home. With San Jose Unified Schools, this property balances privacy with proximity, just moments from Santana Row, Valley Fair, and the Rose Garden's vibrant cafes and parks. A rare blend of elegance, comfort, and convenience - this home is not to be missed.
