Unique Architecture and Picturesque Parks Draw Homeowners and Investors to Slater, Mountain View







The pleasantly quirky Slater neighborhood was built in the middle 1950s and is known for its diverse residential makeup and unique and varied architectural styles. When you live in Slater, your neighbors will be Google execs, young families and retirees who are the original owners of their homes. As you stroll along the wide, tree-lined streets, you will pass brick duplexes decorated with wagon wheels and charming bungalows reminiscent of farm houses. If you are looking for a distinctive non-cookie cutter community that is minutes from downtown, make sure to consider investing in Slater real estate.
Easy Access to Major Thoroughfares
One of the biggest things people want out of living in Mountain View, California is an easy commute to their jobs and the convenience of life. Slater delivers in spades. Situated between Highway 85, Central Expressway, East Middlefield Road and North Whisman Road, Slater is especially appealing to Google and Symantec employees. They can easily walk to work by crossing North Whisman Road. What could be better than having the ability to walk home at lunch to visit their families or let their dogs out?
Slater Is Peaceful and Serene, and That’s How Residents Like It
With downtown Mountain View and its restaurants, shops, pubs and clubs easily accessible by hopping on the Stevens Creek Trail, residents can be in the heart of all the action they want in minutes. What most want when they get home is serenity. Since the area closest to Slater’s borders is dominated by tech businesses, weekends in the neighborhood are quiet. If you are considering buying a Slater real estate investment property, that’s a wise move. Considering Slater has such a huge percentage of renters at approximately 65 percent, you will have no shortage of potential tenants who would love the flexibility of living within walking distance of where they work.
Green Spaces Galore
