What do homes cost in Sylvan Heights?+
Active listings currently range from $1,380,000 to $2,250,000, with a median of $1,750,000 on a median home size around 2,350 square feet. Two of the three homes are new construction and two include a pool. The lower recent sold figure of $545,000 reflects an older, smaller sale, so today's inventory sits well above that.
How is the market in Sylvan Heights?+
Inventory is tight, with just 3 active listings and 2 homes sold in the past 12 months. Homes that do list are moving in a median of 27 days, and sellers are averaging about 90% of asking. Because it's such a small neighborhood, well-priced homes near Lake Killarney don't tend to linger.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
