The large sunny patio areas are well-suited for entertaining family and friends with weekend BBQs or just lounging in the sun and having fun. The home is within blocks of Grant Park, Lucky Supermarket, Alotta's Deli, Woodland Library, and Foothill Crossing Shopping Center, where you'll find Trader Joes, Foothill Produce Market, Starbucks, Red Pepper Bar and Grill, Peets Coffee, Ace Hardware and more. Ideal proximity to top-rated Cupertino public schools as well as private schools, and Rancho San Antonio Park.
