[A PLANNED, SELECTIVE TRANSITION] Because we prioritize the long-term peace and stability of our quiet community, we are intentionally taking our time to find the right organizational match for this unit, rather than rushing to fill the vacancy. Our last resident stayed with us for nearly 5 years, and the previous resident stayed for 14 years. We intentionally structured a deliberate, unhurried 4-week screening and transition window for this vacancy to protect our community's quiet enjoyment and identify a truly exceptional match.

UNIQUE OPEN-CONCEPT LAYOUT This cozy unit features a spacious, open-concept studio/one-bedroom layout full of classic architectural character.

Julian, this property is part of a prominent, family-owned multi-structure estate right on the edge of vibrant Downtown San Jose. Because it is a corner building adjacent to local transit options, the surrounding exterior neighborhood is active and highly connected to the city. However, the interior of this unit is engineered to be a focused, peaceful retreat. The building is a quiet, professionally managed sixplex with over 20 years of dedicated local management experience making this space ideal for residents who love downtown convenience but demand a highly respectful, mindful building culture once inside. The property features a classic integrated garage structure built directly into the front footprint of the estate. This unit includes one assigned parking space inside the shared, vintage-style garage bay with sliding doors providing secure, enclosed protection for your vehicle.
