The property at 6670 Cougar Ln is uniquely designed and sits on a large lot, but its 2-bed, 3-bath, 2,340 sqft configuration is less competitive in today’s Santa Rosa market. Recent comps of similar size and higher finish have sold well above $1M, yet they offer more bedrooms and modern amenities. With a current valuation of $514,900 and a price per square foot dramatically below the area’s $458 median, this home is underpriced for its size but may be hindered by limited bedroom count and high local inventory, which has surged nearly 56% in Q1 2025[1][2][4]. Absorption rates for sub-$2M homes have dropped but still favor sellers, though time to close is trending upwards and buyers have more options.
Price aggressively below $600K to attract value-focused buyers and investors, leveraging the unique architectural pedigree and acreage. Improve curb appeal and modernize key interior elements to broaden appeal. Launch a targeted marketing campaign emphasizing privacy, design, and lot size. List in late summer or early fall to capture motivated post-summer buyers. Expect a longer time-to-close (60–120 days) due to elevated inventory, and focus on buyers seeking retreat-style living or those open to adding bedrooms.
