Kentmere's pricing picture is straightforward: the median sale sits at $425,390, with price per square foot at $184.03. That per-foot figure tells you more than the median alone — it points to a market where condition and finish level, not lot or floor plan alone, are doing the work of separating one closing from the next.
A median of 68 days on market is not a fast clock. Sellers here should price with that pace in mind rather than assume a quick contract, and buyers get more room to inspect, negotiate, and walk away from a home that does not show well. This read is based on the most recent 32 closings in the GAMLS feed, so it reflects current, not historical, behavior.

Kentmere market snapshot (as of September 1, 2026): the median sale price is about $425K ($184 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 68 days on market for closed sales.

Who Kentmere is best for.
Best for
- Buying with flexibility on timeline, since the median days-on-market here runs well past a month.
- Willing to evaluate homes individually on condition rather than assuming price per square foot is uniform across listings.
- Selling with a realistic, data-backed list price rather than testing the top of the market.
Probably not for
- Needing a closing inside a few weeks, given the current 68-day median pace.
- Expecting bundled community amenities as part of the purchase, since none are identified in current listings.
- Buying strictly off a median price without confirming individual home condition, given the spread suggested by the per-square-foot figure.

The Kentmere buying strategy.
If we were buying in Kentmere 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 Kentmere.
What the numbers are actually saying
The $184.03 per-square-foot figure is the most useful data point in this snapshot. In a market like this, it usually means the spread between an updated home and a dated one is wide enough that buyers should not assume every listing near the median is equivalent — square footage alone will not explain what a home is worth here.
At 68 median days on market, this is not a community where listings are getting bid up in the first week. That gives buyers leverage to negotiate on price or terms, and it means sellers who price realistically from the start, rather than testing the market high, tend to have an easier path to closing. No community amenities are identified in current MLS listings, so any pool, clubhouse, or shared green space would need to be confirmed directly with a listing rather than assumed from this data.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Kentmere. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
