Santa Clara’s latest luxury residential development, The Clara, has opened its doors, and it’s giving us plenty of reasons to get excited. Located in the heart of the emerging Clara District, this 22-story high-rise sits just steps from Levi’s Stadium, blending modern living with easy access to entertainment and events. It's actually the tallest residential building in Silicon Valley outside of Downtown San Jose.
With 508 homes ranging from studios to sprawling penthouses, The Clara is already turning heads—only two penthouses remain available for lease, a sign of just how much demand there is for this kind of upscale living near San Jose.
The residences themselves are a showcase of thoughtful design and high-end touches. Open gourmet kitchens come equipped with custom Italian cabinetry, Caesarstone countertops, and Bosch smart appliances, including gas cooktops for those who love to cook. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light, while features like Nest thermostats, Salto keyless entry, and customizable Elfa closets make daily life both convenient and stylish. It’s the kind of place that feels like a step up, whether you’re a tech professional, a family, or someone who just appreciates a well-crafted home.
What really sets The Clara apart, though, are the amenities. Residents can enjoy a 6,500-square-foot fitness center that flows indoors and out, a yoga studio, and a spa complete with sauna and steam rooms. There’s a karaoke room for fun nights in, coworking spaces that adapt to hybrid work life, and even a children’s playroom and outdoor playground. The eighth-floor terrace offers a 75-foot pool with views of Levi's Stadium, grilling stations, and bocce courts, while the rooftop deck delivers jaw-dropping 360-degree views of the South Bay and San Jose. It’s hard not to imagine hosting friends or unwinding after a long day in spaces like these.
This 45-acre neighborhood is shaping up to be a lively, walkable hub with plans for 4,500 residences, public parks, bike lanes, and over 100,000 square feet of shops and restaurants. The Clara puts you right in the middle of these future project, with top employers close by and a lifestyle that’s hard to beat.
Pricing starts at $3,270/mo and you can schedule a tour by calling 408-922-9000 or visiting www.theclara.com.
