The single most important fact here is the year-built range: 1923 to 2024. That is not a typo of a master-planned tract; it is a community that has been redeveloped lot by lot for a hundred years. You will find original mid-century cottages next to teardown-and-rebuilds, and that variety is exactly why two homes on the same street can carry very different values. The median year of 1960 anchors the character, but the outliers on both ends are real.

The homestead share sits near 68 percent, which points to a neighborhood held largely by owner-occupants rather than short-term holders. That tends to support steadier upkeep and fewer distressed flips, though it also means turnover can be limited and the best homes move on condition. At a median near 1,200 square feet, this is compact living; buyers wanting square footage will pay for the rebuilds, and sellers of updated homes should price to their improvements.

In a neighborhood this uneven, an accurate read comes from walking the specific house, not from a neighborhood average. We price and evaluate on condition, era, and lot — separating an original 1960 home from a studs-out rebuild — so buyers do not overpay for the median and sellers of updated homes are not dragged down by tired comps. That property-level discipline is the whole job here.

Confirm the current HOA dues, exactly what they cover, and any CDD bond or special assessment for a specific address before you offer.
