Discover elevated living at 174 Villa Avenue in Los Gatos, a fully reimagined property offering exceptional design, flexibility, and an unbeatable walk-to-town lifestyle just moments from downtown shops and dining and top Los Gatos schools. Comprehensively renovated in 2020, in collaboration with the local Architect teams Britt & Row and Spurs Studio, to create a modern and sustainable design and build which offers a pleasantly modern home with ADU configuration. The entire house blends modern systems and materials for high energy and water efficiency with refined style. The primary residence two-bedroom, two-bath showcases high ceilings, skylit rooms with abundant natural light, beautiful hardwood flooring, designer Porcelanosa tiles and RH lighting, top-of-the-line appliances and finishes throughout. A quartz-topped gourmet kitchen with bar seating and high-end appliances anchors the living space, while windows, and skylights with remote-controlled shades enhance the airy, urban aesthetic. A gas fireplace insert framed with Porcelanosa tile and ceiling fans add comfort and warmth. French doors lead onto serene patios surrounded by lush greenery perfect to enjoy your morning coffee or to entertain in an oasis-like setting. The upstairs primary suite offers privacy with its spacious bedroom, his and her walk-in closet, ensuite bathroom with freestanding tub and light flooded lounging area with picturesque views of the beautiful green hills beyond, creating a peaceful retreat above the main living spaces. The attached one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath ADU with its theater-grade soundproofing walls offers privacy and versatility for guests, extended family, or income potential. It uses the same designer tiles and lighting materials as the primary residence and the design features are equally impressive. New York designed and manufactured stringer stairs lead up to the lofted bedroom, walk-in closet, and full bathroom for an upscale urban feel. The kitchen and laundry area also equipped with top-of-the-line appliances. Exposed beams and fireplace insert anchor the living room, creating a refined, welcoming space to unwind at the end of the day. Behind the walls, extensive upgrades to make this a modern sustainable high energy and water efficient home include structural and seismic improvements with added shear walls, inlaid beams and footings, a new asphalt roof and class-A fire rated composite siding, high-performance soundproofing insulation made from 100% wool, energy efficient windows made from wood with aluminum clad, operable skylights with remote-controlled shades, new HVAC with its super-silent high-efficiency modulating furnace and heat pump with A/C in combination with designer ceiling fans to effectively circulate air in the rooms, new ducts and vents laid out all at ceiling level for increased efficiency due to shorter runs and better insulation, high efficient water heater and all new copper piping throughout, and premium crawlspace encapsulation with sump pump delivering peace of mind along with style. The converted garage adds approximately 300 square feet plus attic space, a half bath, insulated walls and floor, and built-in closet system and desk ideal as a studio, office, or additional living quarters. Outdoor living is equally compelling. A high-grade redwood front patio deck, three aluminum pergolas with rotating louvers for sun and rain coverage, flagstone landscaping, mature fruit trees, and new fencing create a private, yet low-maintenance setting designed for year-round enjoyment. 174 Villa Avenue is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey, thoughtfully upgraded multi-living property in one of Los Gatos’ most desirable in-town locations.
