2440 Fairoak Ct, San Jose | Preserved & Modernized Eichler in Willow Glen

🏡 2440 Fairoak Ct, San Jose, CA 4 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms | 1,618 SF | 6,420 SF Lot | Pool Tour this exceptionally well-preserved and thoughtfully modernized atrium-model Eichler in San Jose’s Fairglen neighborhood near downtown Willow Glen. Built by Joseph Eichler in 1960, this home stands out for how carefully its original mid-century character has been maintained while incorporating modern improvements that respect the architecture. Throughout the home you'll find original Philippine mahogany paneling, tongue-and-groove redwood ceilings with their original stain, globe lighting, wood doors and trim, post-and-beam construction, and floor-to-ceiling glass. Even the modernizations were selected with the home's original design in mind. Aluminum-framed double-pane windows maintain the period aesthetic, while the original Arcadia sliding glass doors were intentionally preserved. Marmoleum flooring offers a modern, period-appropriate alternative to the VCT tile originally used in many Eichler homes, with radiant heating underneath. The kitchen has been opened to the main living spaces and modernized with contemporary flat-panel cabinetry, an expansive Quartz island and breakfast bar, and premium appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, GE Monogram induction cooktop, speed oven and convection oven, and Thermador dishwasher. The primary suite opens directly to the backyard and includes a walk-in closet and updated en suite bath. Three additional bedrooms include a fourth bedroom with direct access to the open-air atrium. Outside, the home features drought-tolerant landscaping, an in-ground pool, wood deck lounge area, and built-in outdoor kitchen and BBQ. 📍 Fairglen Eichler Neighborhood • Booksin Elementary • Minutes to Downtown Willow Glen • Close to Wallenberg, Kirk & Lincoln Parks • Short drive to Downtown Campbell & The Pruneyard • Convenient access to Highways 280, 85, 17 & 87 2440 Fairoak Court is a great example of what an Eichler might look like if it were built today—original mid-century materials and character carefully preserved, with modern improvements that feel true to the architecture.
