What to look for
- “Modern” in a listing can mean a new architect-designed house or an updated older one; ask the year built and what was rebuilt.
- Ask for permits and final sign-offs on any recent work.
- Big glass and open plans mean heat in summer; ask about cooling and window specs.
- Listings name styles loosely, so some of these houses are “inspired by” the style more than pure examples, and many true examples never say the word.
How we counted
Closed sales of houses (MLS property type “single family home”) with a Los Gatos address between October 28, 2024 and October 27, 2026, reported to the MLS and read through the IDX feeds that power our home search, with repeat records from different feeds removed (normalized address plus sale date). A house counts for the style when its listing description names it, by the same rules as our Home Styles pages. Price per square foot uses sales with 400 sq ft or more and is compared with the median for all Los Gatos houses. Neighborhoods are our guides’ outlines, placed by each sale’s map position. Past sales aren’t a forecast or the value of any one home.
