The Most Expensive Streets in Mountain View: Five Years of House Sales, Street by Street
by
Neighborhood averages hide a lot: two streets a few blocks apart can sell hundreds of thousands of dollars apart. To see where house prices are highest in Mountain View, street by street, we took the 1,177 single-family houses that sold through the MLS from October 1, 2021 to October 21, 2026, removed duplicate listings of the same sale, and grouped them by street. 51 streets had at least 6 house sales in those five years, enough for a median. Across Mountain View, the median house sold for $2.63M, or $1,611 per square foot.
The short answer
- Highest median sale price: Sleeper Ave ($4.8M, 8 sales), Carmelita Dr ($4.5M, 7 sales) and Levin Ave ($4.21M, 6 sales).
- Highest price per square foot: Franklin St ($2,290, 6 sales) and Ernestine Ln ($2,094, 6 sales).
- Most house sales: Pyramid Way, with 20 in five years.

How we counted
- Sales: single-family houses that closed through the MLS from October 1, 2021 to October 21, 2026. Condos, townhomes, mobile homes and land are left out. Sales that never reached the MLS aren’t included.
- Duplicates: the same sale reported by two MLS feeds is counted once.
- Streets: names are standardized (Avenue and Ave are the same street). A street needs at least 6 house sales to be ranked, so short cul-de-sacs with only a few sales don’t appear.
- Neighborhoods: each street is placed in one of our neighborhood guides by the center of its sales; streets whose sales spread over more than about 1.2 km are marked as crossing several neighborhoods, and a dash means the street sits outside our guide outlines.
- Medians, not averages, so one unusual sale moves a street less. Small samples still swing, and a street’s median reflects which houses happened to sell.
- Lot size and square footage come from the listings, which can differ from county records.
Keep going: the neighborhood ranking by price per square foot compares whole neighborhoods, the recent sales page shows what sold lately, and the city guide links every neighborhood guide. For one specific house, ask us for the comparable sales on its own street.
