About this home

Opportunity knocks in one of San Jose's most coveted historic pockets. Located in the prestigious Shasta/Hanchett Park neighborhood, this home sits on a 7,000 sqft lot among tree-lined streets and multimillion-dollar residences just minutes from downtown, The Alameda, and Santa Clara University. This is a rare chance to own in an area where homes routinely sell well over two million dollars. The property needs significant work and is being sold as is, and will likely not qualify for conventional financing, so cash or renovation financing is recommended. For the right buyer, that's exactly where the opportunity lives. The location speaks for itself: classic character, mature landscaping, and a walkable setting close to Rose Garden shops, restaurants, and some of the city's most beautiful streetscapes. Properties in Shasta/Hanchett Park don't come available often, and value like this is even harder to find. Buyer to verify any historic district guidelines with the City of San Jose.
