The year-built range from 1945 to 2021 is unusually wide for a community of 191 homes, and it means you are shopping two different products under one name: mid-century originals and the occasional newer infill build. The median year built of 1959 anchors the character firmly on the older side, so budget for the realities of older housing — roofs, plumbing, electrical, and windows — unless a seller can document recent work. The median living area near 1,236 square feet keeps most of these homes efficient rather than sprawling.

For pricing, treat the $224 median per square foot as a midpoint, not a rule. Updated homes carry a premium and dated ones trade below it, so per-foot comparisons only work once you adjust for condition. Buyers should read each listing on its own merits; sellers should recognize that visible, verifiable updates are what pull a home to the top of this range.

In a community where condition drives price more than address, the value is in reading each house accurately — separating cosmetic updates from real system replacements, and pricing accordingly. We work the comps at the square-foot level and adjust for age and updating so buyers do not overpay for lipstick and sellers do not leave real work unpaid for. With a normal 29-day pace, disciplined pricing and preparation matter more than urgency.

Listings in this community report association dues of about $24 per month ($288 a year) — the median AssociationFee across 65 MLS records, normalised to a monthly figure; most are billed quarterly. Dues change with budgets and can differ by section or product type; confirm the current figure with the association before you offer. Source: MLS listing records, 2026-10.
