A rare find close to downtown. The property features approximately 1/4 of an acre lot with a 3000+ square foot home with a lot of history! Almost original state with everything from, a butler room, a "telephone room", to a crib room with a looking window through the closet. This home not only has history of a few of Gilroy's mayors living in this home to some special political figures visiting, but it also has potential. TFT no fault of Seller.
