San Jose has seven Eichler Homes tracts forming five neighborhoods: Morepark, Fairglen, Fairglen Additions, Hudson and Fairhaven, built between 1952 and 1963. Fairglen Additions, 218 houses in Willow Glen built from 1959 to 1961 on streets including Booksin Ave, Fairhill Ln and Andalusia Way, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2019. In the Fairglen Eichler tracts of Willow Glen the garage faces the street, so a replacement door is part of the front of the house. Exterior changes on listed Eichlers fall under the city's Eichler design standards, so check with the city before choosing a new style, then bring us the style you settle on to quote.
