Nestled in the heart of Willow Glen’s historic Fairglen Additions—a neighborhood celebrated for its mid-century modern Eichler homes—2366 Fairglen Drive stands as a testament to timeless design and contemporary luxury. Meticulously remodeled with nearly $500,000 in upgrades, this low-gable Eichler residence seamlessly blends iconic architectural elements with modern enhancements, offering an unparalleled living experience.
Architectural Elegance Meets Modern Comfort
Originally constructed in 1960 by renowned developer Joseph Eichler, this 1,656-square-foot home exemplifies the quintessential Eichler ethos: open floor plans, seamless indoor-outdoor integration, and minimalist aesthetics. The home's enclosed atrium, featuring slate tile flooring, integrated planters, a tranquil water feature, and a sleek fire pit, serves as a serene introduction to the residence's interior.
Inside, the expansive great room boasts vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass, and a dramatic brick fireplace, creating an inviting space for both entertaining and relaxation. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, equipped with custom Bellmont Rift Oak cabinetry, Level porcelain slab countertops, a stacked marble backsplash, and top-of-the-line appliances, including a Wolf induction cooktop and GE Monogram suite. Additional features such as a built-in hutch, custom pantry with solid oak shelving, and Omnia solid brass hardware underscore the meticulous attention to detail.
Sophisticated Living Spaces
The primary suite offers a private retreat, complete with a walk-in Elfa closet system and a spa-inspired bathroom featuring Porcelanosa tile and vanity, Isenberg fixtures, and a modern commode. Each of the four bedrooms is thoughtfully designed, incorporating Elfa closet systems, new solid-core doors with upgraded hardware, and remote rechargeable roller shades. The guest bathroom mirrors the home's high-end finishes, ensuring comfort and style throughout.
Enhanced Infrastructure and Outdoor Oasis
Beyond aesthetics, the home boasts significant infrastructure upgrades, including new drywall throughout, a 200-amp electrical panel with full rewiring, a Nest thermostat, radiant heating system, and a finished garage and carport equipped with an EV charger and automatic opener.
The backyard has been transformed into a private sanctuary, featuring redwood decking, custom hardscaping, a built-in barbecue and seating area, and a durable synthetic lawn. Surrounded by mature Japanese maples and curated plantings, this outdoor space is perfect for entertaining or enjoying peaceful moments in nature.
Prime Location in a Historic Neighborhood
Situated within the Fairglen Additions—a district listed on the National Register of Historic Places—this home offers access to top-rated schools, including Booksin Elementary, Willow Glen Middle, and Willow Glen High School.
