Exquisite Eichler on Comstock
My favorite new listing on today’s tour is a stunning Eichler-style home at 1766 Comstock Lane. It’s a 1500 square foot 4/2 that’s listed for $878,000. It was remodeled in 2008…they spent over $200,000 renovating the kitchen and baths, including high-end features like granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. Those with a green thumb will appreciate the fact that it’s been beautifully landscaped front and back, with fruit trees and a vegetable bed.
I was watching every agent as they walked into this home. They all had one thing in common: a smile on their face. I swear entering this home is like walking into a spa — the sunlight pouring through a lovely atrium with gardenias sweetening the air and classic Eichler open feel with all the rooms facing the atrium. My favorite feature of the home is the electrical sliding skylight over the atrium, shown here.
The kitchen was opened up and they added stainless washer dryer under the counters in a classic Eichler retro modern feel. Everything felt fresh and clean, I didn’t see anything wrong with it myself, and didn’t hear any other criticism of this awesome home. Nothing negative could be said about it!
Here’s another pictures of the very nice interior. You can learn more and see more pictures at MLS Listings.

Willow Glen Update; April 10, 2010
Here’s my picks of the weeks from this week’s broker tour. As always, if you have any questions or want to see one of these houses just pop me a note or call me at 408-887-3225.
2003 Ellen Ave
This 3/2 is going for $749,000. It’s got original kitchen and baths, but it’s got a good layout with some real nice yard features for somebody who’s into landscaping and plants like I am: a pond in the front and a great greenhouse out back. As with any unusual feature, there was lots of discussion about the pros and cons of the greenhouse. Being my own family’s Chief Horticultural Officer, I loved it. Here’s a quick video so you can judge for yourself!
Willow Glen Update; March 12, 2010
I saw a couple fantastic new Willow Glen listings on the realtor tour this week…
1482 Curtis really caught me by surprise. It’s across Minnesota towards Nevada, an area with lots of high-end homes. It’s a 4/3 listed for $1.45M. My favorite part of it is the beautiful bocce ball court complete with granite counter for your beverage of choice. Obviously way beyond great for entertaining.
My favorite new listing has to be 1184 Nevada Ave. It’s an amazing house — 5,761 square feet on an 11,076 square foot lot, just two years old listed for $2,895,000. It has a very “manly” feel from the outside with lots of stonework. Inside, it’s got high-end details from the lighting to the solid natural wood doors. There’s a TV in the bathroom that neatly retracts into the ceiling! There’s lots of room for fun and games too, with a game room for the kids and plenty of space for entertaining. It’s beautiful — I could SOOOO live there!
Willow Glen Update; Feb 25, 2010
Today I went on the weekly realtor tour of houses coming on market in Willow Glen, there are some really nice houses coming on market. Here’s some stats and summaries of a few of my favorites.
Fast Facts
20 homes were sold in Willow Glen last week, 5 of them were “short sales.” Accounting for those sales and the 8 new listings we toured today, there are now 145 active listings in Willow Glen, lower than average.
Hot New Listings
Deal of the Week: 1148 Willow Glen Way
I think this is the deal of the week, a gorgeous little 2/1 on Willow Glen Way listed for $729,000. It’s a total doll house with beautiful renovations and an addition to the bathroom, which I shot a quick video of. It’s totally prime location and isn’t going to last, so if you know somebody looking for high-end Willow Glen charm that doesn’t need/want a huge house, they need to move fast!
Another one that’ll go fast: 1152 Fairview
This really nice 4/3 is on a prime tree-lined Willow Glen street a short stroll away from the Avenue, and I think it’s a great deal listed at $1,229,000. I’m a little partial to it because it’s a Tudor built in 1928, just like my own home, but this house really does have it all — it’s one level which many people with families look for, it’s got a great layout, and it’s been very nicely remodeled. I especially liked the kitchen. I’m no chef, but even I could picture myself cooking something more than the bacon and eggs I limit myself to at home. : )
Big Time Willow Glen Charm
The last new listing I want to highlight is 1155 El Abra Way, a good-sized 5/3 listed for $1,278,000. It features a very nicely remodelled kitchen, and a finished basement…with a fireplace! Upstairs there’s a balcony off a common area that was basking with sunlight and begging for you to enjoy your morning coffee and paper out there. I really liked the billowy curtains, shown here in the video I shot, they give you a good idea of the high-end details and decor that make this house pretty special.
These are just three of the 8 houses that just came on market, if you want to learn more about them or find out what else just came on, pop me a note!
