The build-year range here - 1901 to 2024 - is unusually wide for a community of only 130 homes. That mix means a buyer touring this area could see a century-old structure and a recently built infill home within a few blocks of each other, with the median falling around 1975. Condition, renovation history, and lot use will vary more than in a subdivision built in a single phase, so due diligence on individual homes matters more than area-wide assumptions.

The homestead share sits at 41.6%, meaning a notable share of homes are not owner-occupied under the homestead exemption - worth factoring in if you're assessing how much of the community functions as long-term residences versus rental or investment holdings. No community amenities are identified from current MLS listings, so this reads as a housing-stock play rather than an amenity-driven purchase.

With only 4 active listings and a 16.0-month supply, pricing a home correctly or finding the right one requires close, current tracking rather than relying on broad area averages - which is exactly the kind of thin-inventory market where we spend the most time on individual listing detail.

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