Description

A truly rare offering, both an historic and architectural gem and an exceptional income property in one of Silicon Valley's most exciting locations. Presenting the Reverend G.A. Miller Residence, a stately Queen Anne Victorian built circa 1900 and brought gracefully into the 21st century while preserving the period elements that make these grand homes so sought after. The original turned-spindle staircase, deep wood door casings, paneled doors, decorative ceiling medallions, leaded diamond-pane transoms, a wraparound front porch with classical columns, and a third-floor balcony all speak to the home's pedigree. Thoughtful modernization includes a daylight basement living area, concrete perimeter foundation, dual-pane windows, and updated electrical, plumbing, kitchen, and bathrooms. The home is currently run as a boarding house with ten suites and bedrooms, providing substantial and steady income, and sits on a beautifully kept block of period homes in the shadow of San Jose's iconic City Hall, just one block from San Jose State University and minutes from SoFA, San Pedro Square, Diridon Station, and the future BART extension. For investors, owner-users, or visionaries seeking a downtown landmark with cash flow and long-term upside, opportunities like this come along but rarely.
