About this home
Enjoy this spectacular property in an outstanding location in downtown Los Gatos. The Spanish Mediterranean architecture enjoys a timeless design while delivering modern comfort and fine craftsmanship. Recently remodeled with top of the line finishes and fixtures, enjoy the effortless connection between indoor luxury and outdoor serenity. A private sanctuary, all within walking distance to top-rated Los Gatos schools, neighborhood parks, and the vibrant heart of downtown Los Gatos.
This outstanding residence greets visitors with classic curb appeal such as terracotta roof tiles, stained wood accent beams, and wrought-iron details exuding old world European charm. Mature landscaping softens the approach with colorful blooms and sculpted greenery that border the flagstone path.
The inviting front porch opens to a light-filled foyer and great room. The spacious design incorporates a lovely living and entertaining space with large picture windows, coved ceilings, and ample room for gathering. The handsome gas fireplace adds warmth beneath the elegant oak flooring that flows throughout the interior.
At the heart of the home, the spacious kitchen balances style and function. Beautifully glazed custom cabinetry enjoys gorgeous honed granite counters and professional-grade appliances including a Monogram double oven range and built-in 48 inch refrigerator. Lighted display cabinets with seeded glass are opposite the preparation area as well as a wine refrigerator, under counter ice maker, and bar sink, providing a dedicated space to create the perfect beverage. Beautiful John Pomp hand-blown glass pendants cast a soft glow over the expansive center island and breakfast bar.
On the main floor, there are two bedrooms that share an adjoining bath. A powder bath is conveniently located off the kitchen area. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms, including the spacious primary suite. The lovely suite is a satisfying refuge with a spacious balcony overlooking the rear yard. Two custom walk-in closets and an additional wall closet provide ample storage. Calacatta marble tiles and slab stone finish the gorgeous bath with custom designed dual vanity, steam shower, and Admiral copper soaking tub imported from Italy, a centerpiece for moments of pure indulgence.
Step outside and discover a rear yard designed for leisure and celebration alike. Cascading waterfall spires flow into the sparkling pool from the flagstone accent wall. Relax in the jetted spa, lounge on the lawn in front of the outdoor fireplace, or dine al fresco enjoying a meal prepared using Lynx grill with side burner. This extraordinary outdoor living space is built to savor quiet family moments or entertain in style.
The detached guest house was remodeled in 2020, enhancing the property’s versatility. Featuring a spacious living area with motorized Murphy bed, full kitchen, and full bath, it’s perfect for visiting friends and family or as a dedicated home office or studio. The adjoining two-car garage offers ample storage for vehicles, gear, or a great workshop.
Significant upgrades and second story addition were completed in 2012 which brought the entire home to modern standards, including all-new aluminum clad wood windows, alder stained interior doors, and upgraded mechanical systems. The current owner further enhanced the property as well as added professional grade appliances and imported fixtures, designer finishes, and outdoor amenities.
A perfect balance of sophistication, comfort and location, this downtown Los Gatos residence offers an unparalleled living experience - a rare combination of timeless elegance and everyday practicality just moments away from top tier public and private Los Gatos schools, parks, and the charming downtown shopping and dining district.
