Entrance to the Belwood of Los Gatos neighborhood with sign and planting up close, and cabana in distanceBelwood of Los Gatos is a friendly, active neighborhood that sits on the far eastern edge of the Los Gatos town boundaries. The neighborhood runs from Harwood Road to Belgatos Road and Blossom Hill Road to Belridge. Nearby, and often thought of also belonging to Belwood, are the Belgatos and Surmont areas plus larger properties with estate or luxury homes on Alerche and Crider.

The Belwood neighborhood has two great focal points: Belgatos Park (see slide show of Belgatos Park and the trails on the Belwood of Los Gatos site) and the neighborhood cabaña, which features a pool, a clubhouse, lawn areas, and hoops plus a bocce court as of about 2016. The cabaña is where the neighbors vote and where the HOA community hosts its summer movie nights, sometimes with Bingo first.

The cabaña is also home to the Belwood Dolphins swim team and they are the pride of the neighborhood!

The homes in  the Belwood of Los Gatos neighborhood are generally between 1800 and 2800 square feeet, though some are larger or smaller. In 2018 they were selling in the range of $1,500,000 to about $1,900,000 in most cases.

Some of the homes in Belgatos and Surmont are larger, or sit on larger lots or perhaps even have views, and can run as high as about $2,400,000. Homes on Alerche and Crider Court or Harwood Court sell in the $3 - $4 million range in most cases, but smaller homes or those needing work will be in the $2 - $3 million range.

There are other plusses to the well kept area too - one is the close proximity of shops and restaurants, including Starbuck's, Walgreen's, Tea Garden Chinese Food (good take-out), and Mountain Mike's Pizza.
