Located on one of the most desirable streets in downtown Los Gatos, this classic Mission Revival home honors the spirit of Old California while delivering the comfort and efficiency of modern construction. The extensive rebuild of this gorgeous historic property was completed in 2016. The original design is echoed in the architectural language of the residence, but with functionality, systems, and finishes to meet today’s aesthetic. Warm, dignified, and unmistakably rooted in California heritage, the rich preservation is evidenced through arched entryways, beautiful casement windows, and classic mission-style parapets.
The lovely herringbone brick driveway and walk great visitors, a perfect accent to Mission architecture. Two campanarios with functioning bells flank the welcoming entrance. The interior unfolds with a quiet elegance as a set of French doors open to the spacious foyer. Wide-plank hardwood floors, custom ironwork, and handcrafted tile accents create a cohesive visual language throughout, marrying Mission Revival warmth with a contemporary flow.
Arched passageways, high ceilings, and abundant natural light enhance the sense of volume and warmth in every room. The generous living room warmed by a gas fireplace and the separate dining room overlook views of the front landscape through the large picture windows. There are four nicely sized bedrooms including a private suite on the main level. Each bedroom enjoys an attached bath with gorgeous slab marble, mosaic stone tile accents, and designer fixtures. A set of French doors opens to the expansive second-floor terrace. Capture views of the mountain vistas beyond or star gaze on a cool evening.
At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen serves as both a classic statement of refined living and an exceptional workspace. Outfitted with dual Wolf ovens, a Wolf range, premium ventilation, 48” Subzero refrigerator, and soft-close cabinetry, the kitchen supports both daily life and elevated entertaining. The family room sits just beyond and enjoys the warmth of the second fireplace and French doors that open to the back loggia and rear yard. The addition of a butler’s pantry with a wine refrigerator adds to the elevated aesthetic. Legrand lighting controls allow effortless shifts in mood and ambience while the open concept design assures fluid transitions between formal and informal living areas.
The primary suite provides a private retreat to relax after the events of the day. Open the doors for a cool breeze and enjoy the private balcony overlooking the rear yard. A large walk-in closet with custom-built-in cabinetry offers ample storage and a dressing area. The well-appointed bath is a true spa experience. Beautiful mosaic tile floors flow through the walk-in shower with a soaking tub. Enjoy the large marble-topped vanity and Robern vanity mirrors and cabinet.
Outdoor areas thoughtfully integrate the mission-style detailing. Beautiful terracotta patios, a generous terrace, and a rear loggia provide lovely spaces for relaxing and entertaining options. Whether hosting friends or enjoying a quiet evening alone, the exterior spaces are as functional as they are beautiful.
Behind the two-car detached garage is the studio. The well-appointed suite enjoys an adjoining full bath echoing the fine finish details of the home. This flexible space is perfect for a home office, a bonus room, or an added sleeping area for visiting friends and family.
Located just blocks from downtown Los Gatos and a quick stroll to top Los Gatos schools, grades K-12, this is a fabulous property that offers architectural integrity, everyday livability, and an address deeply connected to the heart of the Los Gatos community.
