SAN JOSE — A company that describes itself as an “athletic country club” has signed a lease for a prime spot at the Santana Row neighborhood in San Jose, saying it hopes for more Bay Area spots.

Life Time plans to open a fitness- and health-oriented country club at the destination Santana Row mixed-use restaurant, shop, housing, hotel, office, and entertainment destination center in west San Jose.

“Santana Row is a great location,” said Meghan Akradi, a vice president of real estate with Life Time. “It’s hard to do better than Santana Row in terms of iconic properties.”

Life Time has leased a building within Santana Row at the southeast corner of Stevens Creek Boulevard and South Winchester Boulevard, according to documents filed on May 28 with the Santa Clara County Recorder’s Office.
