How it compares with homes like it
The peer rule here: same type (single-family homes), within one bedroom of the subject's two, size within 25% of 1,008 sq ft, sales recorded in the last 12 months, nearest radius with at least four sales. That search returned 35 sales across the broader Los Gatos market, with a median sale price of $1,341,000 and a median price per square foot of $1,618.
At $1,339 per square foot, the subject is asking below that 35-sale peer median of $1,618 per square foot. Among the eight sales shown in detail below, the range runs from $284 to $1,952 per square foot — a spread wide enough to reflect meaningfully different locations and conditions within what is technically the same size-and-type bucket.
Among the 15 active single-family listings in the same type and size band right now, the median ask is $946,000 at $815 per square foot. By price, 18065 Soda Springs Road ranks 12th of those 15. The closest listed comparable, 20905 Comanche Trail at 2 bedrooms and 1,128 sq ft, is asking $919,000 ($815/sq ft) — $431,000 less than this listing for roughly similar square footage.
The prior December sale at $751,000 sat within range of several peer sales.

The $1,339/sq ft ask here sits well above the six sub-$1,000 comps and below the two high outliers.
