A beautiful city on the western edges of San Jose, Saratoga has long been known as a place of affluent residents, excellent schools, a phenomenal library, thriving parks, vineyards and enviable multi-million dollar homes. In the “valley” area of the city, neighborhoods are tree-lined and charming, while homes for sale in Saratoga’s hillside neighborhoods offer elegant forest living and more acreage. Because of the considerably large plots of land and many of the area’s carefully preserved natural beauty, there aren’t many new developments available, keeping this area as exclusive as it ever was. The median sales price for Saratoga real estate is $1,297,500.
