Located in the heart of Willow Glen, 2002 Coastland Avenue was a beautifully updated home that managed to preserve many of the architectural details that gave it its original character.
From parquet flooring and distinctive trefoil arches to French doors opening to the backyard, this home combined classic Willow Glen charm with thoughtful updates and flexible living spaces.
2002 Coastland Avenue is a previous listing and is no longer being marketed for sale by Michelle Elliott.
Classic Willow Glen Character
One of the things that immediately stood out about 2002 Coastland Avenue was how much of the home’s original personality remained intact.
Classic parquet flooring, trefoil arches and architectural details brought character to the interior while complementing the home’s updates.
Rather than removing everything old in favor of something new, the updates worked with the home’s existing style—and that’s part of what made this property memorable.
French Doors and Indoor-Outdoor Living
French doors connected the dining room to a private outdoor area, creating an easy transition from indoor dining to meals outside.
Just steps away, the updated kitchen offered generous counter space along with a movable island that could also serve as additional prep or buffet space when entertaining.
The connection between the dining area, kitchen and outdoor space made this part of the home especially functional for gatherings.
A Second Living Room With Flexibility
Another standout feature was the home’s second living area.
Filled with natural light, this additional room provided flexible space that could accommodate everything from movie nights to a home office or casual everyday living.
Having two distinct living spaces gave the home options for different activities without requiring major changes to the original floor plan.
An Updated Bathroom That Preserved the Home’s Style
The main bathroom had also been updated, but its design continued the classic feel found throughout the house.
Details included wainscoting, subway tile and penny-round flooring, bringing together traditional materials in a way that complemented the home’s architecture.
Three Bedrooms With Backyard Views
The bedroom wing included three bedrooms, each with views toward the surrounding yard.
The primary bedroom had its own connection to the outdoors, with French doors leading directly into the backyard.
Outside, mature landscaping—including an avocado tree—helped create a private setting for relaxing, dining and enjoying the San Jose weather.
Living in Willow Glen
2002 Coastland Avenue offered convenient access to many of the places associated with everyday life in Willow Glen, including neighborhood parks, local businesses and the shops and restaurants around Downtown Willow Glen and Lincoln Avenue.
The property was also located within the greater San Jose area, with access to major transportation routes including Highways 87 and 101 and Interstates 280 and 880.
