Location, location, location … That’s the first thing that draws many residents to Rex Manor, a small 74-acre Mountain Shadows suburb north of Central Expressway, east of Monta Loma and west of North Whisman. Most residents find Rex Manor is a 15-minute walk from work, school, dining, shopping, entertainment and everything else they could want. When they move into the neighborhood, they discover it’s not only conveniently located, but it’s also charming, serene and friendly. Minutes from Google, Highway 101, Stanford University, San Francisco, San Jose, and Silicon Valley, this desirable neighborhood is providing a robust realty springboard for investors and homeowners alike.
A Place Where People Put Down Roots
The Silicon Valley is notoriously transient, yet Rex Manor has largely bucked that trend. As the saying goes, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” When people discover living in Rex Manor delivers all they’re looking for in a home, such as a great location, character, friendly neighbors and increasing property value, they often have no compelling reason to leave. Consequently, residents include a mix of older residents who purchased their homes in the 1950s and 1960s when the neighborhood was built and never moved, as well as young singles and families – a portion of which are employed by Google. Many of the original ranch-style homes have been upgraded and remodeled but maintain their 1960s character.
Plenty to Do Right in the Neighborhood
One reason to consider investing in the Rex Manor real estate market is it’s especially inviting to a key demographic that buys single-family homes: families. At the heart of the community is Stevenson Park, home to basketball and tennis courts, softball fields, playground equipment, walking trails and a huge grassy lawn ideal for picnicking and kite flying. One bonus? The park has restrooms! Throughout Rex Manor, there are sidewalks shaded by mature palm and fruit trees, making morning and evening strolls inviting. Thanks to traffic circles and lack of through streets, speeding isn’t usually an issue in this quiet community.
