Open House today, Sept. 2, from 12-5 p.m.

- By Monica Lander CORRESPOND­ENT

The curtain rises on another exciting production by Silicon Valley Realtor Pat Kapowich.

He presents yet another move-in ready home in the desirable Cambrian neighborho­od in west San Jose, an oasis of quiet tree-lined street showcasing great value for today’s real estate dollars.

A producer and host of consumer protection and risk management television interview shows, real estate seminars, and stage production­s, Kapowich has even been on the stage performing as actor and musician. He always brings his artistic eye to his properties as he prepares them for their debuts on the market.

Located close to the charming downtowns of Campbell, Los Gatos, Saratoga, and Willow Glen, Cambrian is also centrally located with easy access into Silicon Valley, major commute routes, and many shopping and dining options. Within Cambrian are neighborho­od parks, the Camden Community Center, and also top-rated schools.

Beautifull­y updated and sunfilled, the home at 3364 Kilo Ave. is on the market for the first time. Refreshed from front to back and top to bottom, this almost 1,400-square-foot home features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, spacious living spaces and a level backyard primed for play, entertaini­ng, and relaxation.

Refreshed front landscapin­g — including colorful crepe myrtle trees, lawn and garden beds, new fencing, and a paver driveway — creates a welcoming curb appeal. Gather on the inviting front porch and wave to neighbors out walking their dogs or just enjoy the peaceful ambience of the surroundin­gs.

The open floor plan is on one level and features light-filled rooms, recessed and track lighting, decorative crown molding, hardwood flooring, fresh interior paint, five new Hunter ceiling fans, plantation shutters and wood blinds, and dual pane windows.

The attention to detailing means the home also has been completely rewired and has upgraded copper plumbing. The home is also wired for an alarm system.

Walk through the front door with its leaded glass panel and into a spacious foyer. A woodburnin­g fireplace with a painted wood mantel and marble surround anchors the large living room. Built-in cabinetry for media, books, and keepsakes flank the fireplace. The living room has ample space for a quiet reading nook.

The adjoining formal dining room has French doors that open onto the backyard brick patio.

A fantastic kitchen is adjacent to a wonderful flexible space ideal for a casual dining nook/ family room. The kitchen is illuminate­d in natural light from the skylight and frontfacin­g window over the double sink. It is well appointed with an abundance of painted cabinetry including some with glass paneled doors, large island/breakfast bar, perimeter counters and built-in workstatio­n. There are newer double ovens and microwave.

The adjacent room has French doors that open onto the side patio and a convenient venue for a barbecue, café table for morning coffee, or children’s play area. Glass French doors also separate the room from the formal dining and living rooms. There are three bedrooms, all with crown molding, and two bathrooms including the master suite featuring a large closet with built-in organizers, and a stylishly updated master bath.

The updated master bath is beautifull­y adorned with a marble counter, stylish glass vessel sink, new fixtures, and backsplash highlighte­d with a band of decorative tile. The marble tile continues to the vaulted ceiling where a skylight allows natural light to illuminate the room. Decorative glass tiles define the walk-in shower with glass door entry and marble surround.

One additional bedroom features a built-in Murphy bed, and a large closet. Another bedroom also has a large closet and French doors that open onto the backyard gardens and patio.

A full bathroom is updated with marble accents and includes a shower/bathtub combinatio­n, marble wainscot, high ceiling, and new fixtures.

The backyard space is very private and features a large brick patio, lush lawn and colorful foliage in perimeter garden beds. A wide side patio is ideal for a barbecue or children’s play area.

Realtor Pat Kapowich routinely completes roof, chimney and termites inspection­s of the home to spearhead obtaining clearances from each inspector.

Additional features include ample off-street parking, a two-car finished garage with epoxy flooring, mudroom/ utility room with newer frontloadi­ng (HE) washer and dryer and utility sink, and newer roof. Price: $1,288,000
