Desirable Location: Adjacent to the highly coveted Willow Glen area, providing access to a desirable neighborhood with established amenities and community.
Extensive Community Amenities: Residents will enjoy a wide array of amenities including a pool, spa, fitness room, clubhouse, bike storage, outdoor courtyard with BBQs, and an on-site playground.

Excellent Commuter Access: Offers a quick 10-minute commute to downtown San Jose and immediate access to major freeways (87 and 280), ideal for professionals.
Cons
High Monthly HOA Fees: The association fee of $723.00 per month is substantial and adds significantly to the overall cost of homeownership.
Condominium Living Limitations: As a condominium, the property inherently involves shared walls, potential for noise from neighbors, and limited private outdoor space compared to a single-family home.
Compact Unit Size: At 1049 square feet for a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom unit, the living space may be considered compact for some buyers, potentially limiting flexibility for larger households or those desiring more expansive rooms.
