Don’t Miss This Truly Special Home In Downtown Campbel

- By Monica Lander

This truly special home in downtown Campbell is

accessed via a charming flagstone walkway that meanders through the profession­ally landscaped front gardens. The beautiful

front yard is bursting with native and Mediterran­ean drought-tolerant foliage that not only creates an inviting entry to this hidden gem but also supports hundreds of birds, bees and beneficial­s that create a thriving natural ecosystem. The incredible location, on a charming, tree-lined street is just over a block to all the fabulous shops, entertainm­ent and fine dining that downtown Campbell is known for.

Not only is it a short stroll to the vibrant downtown establishm­ents, there are numerous parks, bike trails

and one of the best farmers markets in the Bay Area just minutes away. The appealing Campbell community offers numerous outdoor venues all year-round. Enjoy live music, outdoor movies, wine-walks and art exhibits for every taste and style. The Campbell Community Center offers year-round classes and events, a fitness center, a running track and pool as well as family picnic area.

The home at 215 N. 1st Street embraces you in serenity with its beautifull­y updated and open floorplan drenched in natural light. The outdoor oasis offers enchanting gardens and multiple outdoor vignettes that are designed for entertaini­ng on a grand scale, intimate gatherings with family and friends, or quiet moments that nurture both body and soul.

Rebecca Jepsen, Golden Gate Sotheby’s Internatio­nal realtor, helped the current owner find this exceptiona­l property about nine years ago and fast became friends watching the landscape transform into a piece of paradise. She is proud to have the opportunit­y to

bring this home back on the market and offer a new

owner the opportunit­y to live and thrive in this beautiful, serene setting.

Behind the custom gates is a surprising­ly deep driveway

that can accommodat­e guest or RV parking (with

charger). The multi-car garage that doubles as an expansive party venue is

illuminate­d by designer

through the front room with its wood-burning fireplace and into the chef ’s kitchen. An abundance of cabinetry and granite counter space, including a peninsula island/breakfast bar, fills the thoughtful­ly designed kitchen that also features a garden window that welcomes a flood of natural light. Perfect for the decerning chef is a stainless sink and stainless appliances including a range, microwave, a Bosch dishwasher.

The expansive living room has hardwood flooring and sliding glass doors that lead to the backyard and courtyard which is serenaded by cascading water in one of two fountains.

Three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms include a main-level primary suite. This large room has a frontfacin­g garden view window and a beautifull­y appointed spa-like bath with a stunning marble-topped vanity, a soaking tub, an oversized shower, and a tumbled stone tile floor. A walk-in closet features custom shelving and drawers.

Ascend the staircase to two large rooms, approximat­ely 11 by 14 feet each. These bedrooms have carpet, ceiling fans, roman shades, garden views, and share a full bathroom with an updated shower, vanity, and designer light fixtures.

Additional features include new HVAC, indoor laundry, a powder room, Ecobee thermostat, new six-foot fencing with decorative lattice, RV parking with outlet, extensive landscape lighting, EV outlet in the garage, and an updated roof (2012).
