At 66 homes and a median year built of 1995, this is a finite, mature community. Homes in the 1994–2000 range are at the stage where roofs, HVAC, and water heaters have typically turned over at least once — so the diligence question is not whether a system is old, but whether it has already been replaced. That variation drives a wide price spread around the median, and it is why we push buyers to read the mechanicals before the finishes.

The median living area of 2,316 square feet is the structural draw here. These are not compact plans; they offer the kind of interior space that supports move-up buyers who want room without buying new. Combine that with the roughly 81% homestead share and you get a community that trades infrequently and rewards buyers who are pre-positioned to act.

In a 66-home community with thin, condition-driven comps, generic pricing tools fall apart. We underwrite each home on its actual systems and updates against the median, tell sellers where their finishes really place them, and give buyers a straight read on whether a listing is priced to condition or to hope. That is the difference between overpaying and buying well in a market this small.
