Property Description
Located in the coveted Shasta Hanchett Park neighborhood within San Jose's Rose Garden district, 1208 Martin Avenue is an architecturally distinctive 1916 2BD/2BA residence offering approximately 2136 sq ft of living space on an approximately 3838 sq ft corner lot, per public tax records. The home reflects Prairie-style influence with strong horizontal lines, broad eaves, and timeless architectural character. A formal entry/library leads to an expansive living room with fireplace and abundant natural light. Period details including hardwood floors, crown moldings, stained glass, and built-ins continue into the formal dining room. A bright breakfast room connects to a functional kitchen with ample cabinet and counter space. The home's private bedroom wing at the rear features 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, including a primary suite with sitting room, plus a second bedroom served by a hall bath. A separate bonus office or hobby room off the kitchen adds flexibility. Interior utility/laundry room provides access to the rear yard and partical basement with additional storage options. The private rear grounds feature gated off-street parking, low-maintenance hardscape with gardening opportunities, and a large detached storage/workshop. Generally move-in ready, the home offers opportunity for updates over time. Ideally located near local shopping, dining, schools, The Municipal Rose Garden, The Alameda, Santana Row, Valley Fair, and major employers and commute routes. A rare opportunity to own a distinctive early 20th century residence in one of San Jose's most appealing residential enclaves!
