111 Running Bear Drive

Sold Feb 6, 2026
Sold for $105k less27 sq ft smaller$79 lower per sq ftBoth are fully updated

115 Running Bear Drive is a beautiful log-style home, but it is priced at a significant premium compared to this sold listing right next door. While the home for sale offers a garage and a newer build date, this property was fully renovated with modern granite and stainless finishes for much less. Even with the unique pine interior and vaulted ceilings at 115 Running Bear Drive, it is a tough sell to justify a $125,000 price jump for nearly the same amount of living space.

Bottom line
115 Running Bear Drive is a unique property, but the price point appears quite high compared to recently renovated homes on the same street.

111 Running Bear Drive

Sold Aug 4, 2025
Sold for $264k less145 sq ft smaller$199 lower per sq ftNeeded a total renovation

This sold listing shows the entry point for a home needing a full overhaul in the neighborhood. While 115 Running Bear Drive is in pristine, move-in condition, the price gap between a shell and the finished home for sale is extreme. Even after accounting for the cost of a high-end renovation, the home for sale remains priced well above the total investment seen in this property.

Bottom line
115 Running Bear Drive offers convenience and style, but the price reflects a very high premium over the local renovation ceiling.

122 Buckskin Drive

Sold Apr 8, 2026
Sold for $93k less7 sq ft larger$75 lower per sq ftFeatures older oak cabinets and finishes

The home on Buckskin Drive offers a similar footprint on a larger lot for over $100,000 less than 115 Running Bear Drive. While the home for sale has much more character with its pine interior and vaulted ceilings, the home on Buckskin represents a more typical value for this square footage. You are paying a significant lifestyle premium for the log-cabin feel and the garage at the home for sale.

Bottom line
115 Running Bear Drive is much more stylish, but the price per square foot is significantly higher than other functional homes in the area.
