Neighborhood

West Valley, which makes up the southwest portion of the valley, includes several neighborhoods in the city of San Jose. The apartments in this district range from affordable to upscale, but there are many luxury rentals in the West Valley. This community spans from the West Valley Freeway to the west and State Route 17 to the east. The West Valley is home to shopping malls, public schools, supermarkets, neighborhood parks, historic landmarks, and everything in between. One of the most well-known historical places in the West Valley is the Winchester Mystery House. This expansive landmark features a staircase leading nowhere and other odd features designed to confuse ghosts. High-end sports bars, bustling cafes, upscale sushi bars, and vegan eateries can all be found in the West Valley. Residents of this district have easy access to Downtown San Jose and Santa Clara, making it the perfect place for commuters to find a rental.

We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Absolutely Accommodating and Peaceful

I cannot ask for anything better than this. The manager and maintenance staff are a well balanced team and the property is very well maintained. Alla has exceptional people skills and Rene is on top of everything when it comes to maintenance. Concerns and issues are immediately rectified and Alla always follows up to make sure it is to the satisfaction of the tenant. I have lived here for years and plan to continue enjoying the serenity and professionalism of my living environment.

Safe and nice

Leasing manager Alla is very nice and professional lady. Safe, clean and nice complex. Amazing location. 5 min walking to the park. 5 min driving to Safeway and Trader Joe’s. Friendly neighbors. 10 min driving to Santana Row.

6-years

Lived here six-years and had a good experience. Rene in maintenance is the best. Anytime I had a problem with the apartment he was there to help or fix the the situation quick and easy. Alia the manager is great and gave assistance to any questions or concerns we had. The location is also good, centrally located in West San Jose. Close to WestGate Shopping Center which as everything you need. I recommend Colonial House Apartments. The pizza place around the corner is good too.

5/30/18
Peaceful

Quite Apartment Living

Looking for that quite apartment building to call home? Look no further. Enjoy coming home to unwind after a busy day at work where neighbors are friendly and respectful of one another. The grounds and common areas are beautifully landscaped with rose gardens and a variety of lush foliage. BBQ with family and friends in the courtyard and have a dip in the sparkling pool. Close to all major Highways for a fast commute to anywhere you need to go. Less than 1 mile from AMC Theaters, shopping mall and fine dining.
