With just 43 homes and a median year built of 2001, this is a mature community with a defined edge rather than an expanding one. The build range from 1990 to 2023 means you will find both settled-in original homes and newer construction under the same address book, so two homes of similar size can price very differently. The 3,353-square-foot median points to substantial floor plans throughout.

The 93% homestead share is the number to sit with. It signals a community of long-term owners, which historically produces limited listing supply and infrequent sales. That scarcity is a double edge: sellers face little direct competition, but both sides have fewer recent transactions to anchor value, so accurate pricing depends on reading each home on its own merits.

In a low-turnover community with few comps and a wide condition-driven spread, pricing is the whole game. We work the details that actually move value here — square footage relative to build year, updates, and lot specifics — instead of leaning on a thin sales record. Whether you are listing into limited competition or waiting for the right home to surface, we tell you what a number is really built on.
