171 S. Sunset Ave is a duplex located at the tail end of the Alum Rock area. The unit mix consists of (1) 3 bedroom / 1 bathroom and (1) 4 bedroom / 2 bathroom. The property is located on a 0.12 acres / 5,600 Sqft lot. Among the amenities are on-site parking and laundry in each unit.
Residents enjoy a walkable location near Alum Rock Avenue, which features a variety of local shops, services, and several shopping centers. Just a short drive away, Eastridge Mall offers over 100 retailers and amenities, including Macy’s, AMC Theatres, and Round1 Bowling & Arcade. The nearby Alum Rock Transit Center serves as a key transportation hub, with access to multiple VTA bus lines and the starting point of the Orange Line light rail, providing a direct route to Downtown Mountain View. Downtown San Jose is also easily accessible by car and features vibrant destinations such as San Pedro Square, South First Street, and César Chávez Plaza.
San Jose is one of the most expensive cities in the United States with the average median home price being over $1.7M (as of August 2025). This places homeownership out of reach for most residents, which creates a robust tenant base.
