Welcome to your private retreat in the redwoods, where peaceful mountain living meets everyday convenience. Set on approximately 3 acres, this unique Los Gatos property feels even more expansive thanks to its exceptional privacy, with no neighboring homes visible from the property. Wind your way down a private driveway along the mountainside and arrive at a secluded escape tucked beneath the redwoods, creating an immediate sense of peace and privacy. Technically a 2-bedroom home, the second bedroom has been thoughtfully modified into a warm and inviting living room featuring a fireplace, creating a comfortable space to relax and gather. Offering just under 1,100 sq. ft. , the home is surrounded by towering redwoods, natural beauty, and two seasonal creeks that meander through the property. Enjoy morning coffee on the deck, entertain beneath the redwood canopy, work from your peaceful hideaway, or simply unwind in complete tranquility. Despite its secluded setting, downtown Los Gatos is just minutes away, providing convenient access to dining, shopping, entertainment, and more. A rare opportunity to enjoy true privacy, acreage, and serene redwood living while remaining close to town.
