Willow Glen South
The southern extension — active new construction and the Hillsdale Avenue retail corridor.
Willow Glen South homes for sale represent the neighborhood’s southern extension, stretching south from Curtner Avenue toward the Hillsdale Avenue retail corridor. This pocket has become one of the most active new-construction markets in San Jose, with Thomas James Homes and similar builders adding contemporary homes on sites where older bungalows once stood.
The result is an unusual mix: original 1940s–50s ranch and bungalow homes alongside brand-new four- and five-bedroom builds. Prices reflect the blend — typically $1.4M on older character homes up to $4.4M on the largest new construction. For buyers priced out of Willow Glen proper but wanting the school pipeline and community feel, Willow Glen South delivers.
Schools serve the area through Schallenberger Elementary, Willow Glen Middle, and Willow Glen High School. Hillsdale Avenue offers grocery, dining, and essential retail; Lincoln Avenue is a five-minute drive. Highway 87 runs along the western edge for downtown San Jose commutes.
