The build range from 1888 to 2024 tells you this is a neighborhood that has absorbed change in layers. Alongside homes well over a century old sit newer infill and gut renovations. A median year built of 1943 means most of what you tour predates modern construction norms, so plumbing, electrical, foundations, and roofs deserve close attention. Expect real variance in what an inspection turns up, and budget accordingly.

A homestead share of roughly 64% points to a neighborhood held largely by owner-occupants rather than short-term turnover, which tends to correlate with maintained homes and a stable street feel. That owner presence, combined with the small overall count of 261 homes, keeps available inventory tight — when a well-kept home lists, it does not blend into a crowded field.

In a market where a single median can't tell you what any given home is worth, our value is line-item judgment: reading condition, estimating what renovation or deferred maintenance actually costs, and pricing each property on its own facts. With no recent closings to lean on, we underwrite from the ground up rather than from a headline number, and we will tell you plainly when a home's price does not match its bones.
