About this home

2256 Fairhill Lane is a rare Willow Glen offering, set within the highly regarded Fairglen enclave and rooted in the legacy of a true Eichler. Spanning approximately 1,755 SQFT, this 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath residence has been fully rebuilt and completely modernized, while honoring the architectural purity and cultural significance that define Eichler design. Taken down to the studs and reimagined from the inside out, the home features all new systems throughout, including plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roof, insulation, drywall, sewer and water lines, windows, doors, siding, surrounding hardscape and more. True to its Eichler heritage, walls of floor to ceiling glass surround the classic center atrium, allowing natural light to flood the interiors and creating a seamless connection. Thoughtful upgrades elevate everyday living, from Bosch appliances and custom white oak cabinetry and interior doors, to a smart five zone mini split HVAC system designed for comfort and efficiency. The home is discreetly future ready with pre wired fiber, Unifi hardwired cameras and access points, Nest Yale smart deadbolt, tankless water heater, 240V car charging, and smart irrigation system. The property is surrounded by a close knit community known for its block parties and genuine neighborly connection.

High Price Point: With a list price of $2.65 million, the property represents a significant investment, potentially narrowing the pool of prospective buyers.
Niche Architectural Style: While a strength for enthusiasts, the distinct mid-century modern Eichler design, with its specific aesthetic and open atrium layout, may not appeal to all buyers, potentially limiting market reach.
Perceived Smaller Square Footage for Price: At 1,755 SQFT, some buyers might perceive the interior living space as modest for a 4-bedroom home at a $2.65 million price tag, especially if they are not specifically seeking an Eichler's efficient design.
