Property Description
A timeless offering in the heart of downtown Los Gatos. Set along one of the most treasured streets in Los Gatos, University Ave. offers a rare chance to own a legacy trophy home in the historic University/Edelen District. Just steps from vibrant downtown, yet tucked into a peaceful, tree-lined enclave, this residence offers a rare balance of privacy and connection. Lovingly held by the same family for over three decades, the home blends classic charm with refined modern comfort. Light pours into thoughtfully updated interiors, including a custom-renovated kitchen and baths, hardwood floors, and a dedicated home office designed for flexibility. French doors lead to a private patio and a serene backyard, offering indoor-outdoor living perfect for entertaining or a quiet retreat. The location completes the entertainer's lifestyle, with award-winning schools, Michelin-caliber dining, boutique shops, a farmers market, and the trendy downtown all just around the corner. Hiking and biking trails, parks, and recreational activities are within easy reach. A detached two-car garage, inviting curb appeal, and an address within one of the town's most historic neighborhoods, this is more than a home. It's an heirloom, a lifestyle, and a rare opportunity in Los Gatos and Silicon Valley.
