About This Home

Tucked away in the western foothills, 8411 Goldenrod Circle offers a rare opportunity to own within the Forest, Gilroy's premier gated enclave known for its custom estates and unmatched privacy. This 3,103-square-foot residence sits on a sprawling one-acre lot, blending the rugged soul of a mountain retreat with the sophisticated comforts of a modern country estate. Designed as the ultimate retreat for the Silicon Valley professional, the home provides a peaceful escape at the end of the day. Whether commuting via the Gilroy Caltrain or nearby tech shuttles, the transition from San Jose to this tranquil forest setting is effortless. Inside, the layout is spacious and thoughtfully designed, featuring a three-car garage, owned solar, EV charging, a water purification system, and central vacuum. Outdoors, an expansive deck overlooks majestic trees and sparkling city lights, creating the perfect setting to unwind. The lifestyle is defined by its surroundings, with nearby Santa Clara County wine trail, Gilroy Gardens, and highly regarded schools including Luigi Aprea Elementary and Christopher High School. More than a home, its an opportunity to enjoy space, privacy, and a deeper connection to nature.
