With a build range spanning 1966 to 1988 and a median living area near 1,946 square feet, these are solid, right-sized homes — not tract-new, not tiny. The value question is almost entirely about what has been maintained and what has not. Roofs, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical from this era are the swing factors, so an updated home and an original one that look alike on paper will not price alike in practice.

The homestead share near 70% tells you this is a stay-put community with limited inventory moving at any given time. Combined with only two recent closings, expect listings to be episodic. Buyers should be patient and ready to move when the right condition appears; sellers benefit from scarcity but should not assume it substitutes for presentation and honest disclosure.

In a thin-turnover community like this, the median tells you almost nothing on its own — the money is in reading condition against a handful of comps. We price and negotiate off systems, updates, and inspection realities rather than a round number, and in a market this quiet we know how to wait for the right home and how to position a listing so it does not sit.
