1068 Merle Avenue, San Jose, CA 95125
Experience the quintessential Willow Glen lifestyle in this enchanting 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Spanish-style residence, making its debut on the market for the very first time! Perfectly positioned just steps from Downtown Willow Glen's bustling retail corridor of Lincoln Avenue and seconds away from the neighborhood's premier boutiques, coffee shops, and dining. Spanning just over 1,600 SF, this home radiates warmth and authenticity. The living room serves as a stunning centerpiece with its rustic wood-beamed ceilings and a signature arched picture window. Beautiful original hardwood floors flow throughout, leading to an updated kitchen featuring crisp white cabinetry, stone countertops, and a double wall oven. Perhaps the most exciting feature is the additional 380 SF bonus room (not included in the official square footage). With its classic tile flooring and private garden access, this versatile space is the perfect canvas for an exceptional home office, fitness studio, or guest retreat. While the charm is historic, the infrastructure is sound and it is move-in ready including a new HVAC system and water heater, pristine landscaping, and a private backyard patio. Don't miss this "once-in-a-generation" opportunity to own a piece of Willow Glen history!
