Countryside Valley is a built-out pocket of homes dating from 1985 to 2002, with the typical house landing around 1,724 square feet and a median build year of 1988. At a median of $245,000 and roughly $166.50 per square foot, price here is driven less by location premiums and more by condition and updates — an original-systems house and a renovated one will sit far apart in value, and the median tells you the middle of that spread, not the ceiling or floor.
The posture right now is patient. A median of 85 days on market means homes are taking well over two months to sell, so sellers should price to condition from day one rather than test the market and chase it down. For buyers, that same tempo is leverage: there is time to inspect thoroughly, and homes of this age warrant close attention to roofs, HVAC, and plumbing before you commit.
The 60-Second Overview
Countryside Valley market snapshot (as of August 21, 2026): the median sale price is about $260K ($178 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 47 days on market for closed sales.
This is an established, fully developed community of 181 homes where the housing stock is consistent in vintage and size — meaning the negotiation usually comes down to how much work the previous owner did, not the footprint.

Who Countryside Valley is best for.
Best for
- Buyers targeting a mid-$240s budget who value a stable, built-out neighborhood over new construction
- Owner-occupants who plan to stay and don't mind updating an older home over time
- Patient buyers who want time to inspect and negotiate rather than compete in a fast market
Probably not for
- Buyers who need move-in-ready, modern-built homes with current systems throughout
- Sellers who need a quick close and can't sit through a longer marketing window
- Investors chasing rapid turnover, given the heavily owner-occupied, slow-moving inventory

The Countryside Valley buying strategy.
If we were buying in Countryside Valley today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Countryside Valley.
A condition-driven market with a slow clock
With a homestead share of about 74%, most of these homes are owner-occupied rather than turned over as rentals, which tends to show up in maintenance and in a slower, steadier pace of listings. That stability is a feature for a buyer who wants a settled street, but it also means inventory is limited and the right updated home does not come along constantly.
Because the homes were built across a roughly 17-year window and cluster around the late 1980s, the practical question is always the same: what has been replaced and what hasn't. The median price reflects a mix of both. Expect the wide gap between a maintained, modernized home and one still on its original systems to define nearly every deal, and budget for the difference accordingly.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Countryside Valley. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
Why work with Momentum here
In a market moving at an 85-day pace, mispricing costs weeks and negotiating leverage. We price to actual condition, document what has been updated, and steer inspections toward the systems that matter most in homes of this era — so sellers avoid stale listings and buyers avoid inheriting deferred maintenance.
