Old Mountain View Home Values
& 1% Listing Fee
Old Mountain View surrounds the Castro Street downtown, bounded roughly by Central Expressway and El Camino Real, blending 1920s bungalows with newer townhomes and condos. Its defining value driver is walkability — to Castro's restaurants, the farmers market, and Caltrain. Transit access and downtown proximity keep demand deep, and character bungalows on walkable blocks command a premium over the area's denser attached stock.
