This sold listing is a great benchmark as it is also a brand-new construction home with similar modern finishes like quartz counters and LVP flooring. The home on Gerrad Street sold for a slightly lower price per square foot, but it is located in a subdivision marketed specifically as the most affordable in the county. In contrast, 121 Millview Way is part of a master-planned community that includes premium amenities like a pool, pickleball courts, and walking trails. The small price premium for the home for sale appears to be a fair trade-off for the extensive community features you’ll enjoy.

This sold listing offers a very unique setup with a detached garage that includes a fully finished apartment, which accounts for its significantly higher price per square foot. While 121 Millview Way provides much more living space in the main house for a lower overall rate, it doesn’t offer the immediate rental potential or guest suite found at the home on Collins Street. This property also features a high-end masonry fireplace and a large covered porch that adds a luxury feel to the outdoor space. For a buyer who doesn’t need a separate apartment, the home for sale represents a much more efficient use of your budget.

It is important to note that this sold listing is a manufactured home, which is a different asset class than the stick-built construction of 121 Millview Way. Visually, this property shows its age with popcorn ceilings, dated honey-colored cabinetry, and older flooring throughout. While it offers a large lot and a much lower entry price, it lacks the modern open-concept flow and high-end finishes like quartz countertops and LVP flooring planned for the home for sale. The price gap between these two is expected given the difference in construction quality and modern amenities.
