The build window - 1981 to 1994, with a median of 1982 - puts most homes here at an age where original systems, roofs, and finishes have typically cycled through at least one round of replacement, though that varies house to house. Median living area of 1,594 square feet points to modestly scaled homes, well-suited to buyers not chasing square footage for its own sake.

The 78.4% homestead share is notable: it signals a community held largely by long-term owners rather than cycled through frequent resale or investment turnover. Combined with just one active listing at this snapshot, it tells a consistent story - inventory here is naturally scarce, and when a home does come up, it's often the first meaningful comp in a while rather than one of several competing options.

In a community with only one active listing and no recent closings to benchmark against, pricing and negotiating well depends on knowing the building stock - what a 1980s-era home in this section typically needs updated, and what condition actually justifies in price. We walk both buyers and sellers through that home-by-home, rather than leaning on a market trend that doesn't currently exist here.
