    • Price: ⬇️ (Sold for $6k less)

    • Sq Ft: ⬇️ (Smaller by ~280 sq ft)

    • Cost/SqFt: ⬆️ (Higher at $231/sqft)

    • Condition: ⚖️ (Both feature similar updates)

    This home on Wyoming Drive is a very strong indicator of value, as it is smaller and older than the home for sale, yet sold for nearly the same total price. 121 Running Bear Drive offers significantly more square footage and was built six years later, making its lower price per foot very attractive. Both properties feature updated kitchens and comfortable layouts, but the extra space and newer age of the home for sale are clear advantages.

    🟢 121 Running Bear Drive stands out as a good value when you consider you are getting a newer, larger home for a very similar price point to this smaller sold listing.

  • A modern white house with black accents, a two-car garage, and a front porch, set on a lush green lawn with trees in the background under a partly cloudy sky.

    • Cost/SqFt: ⬆️ (Higher at $219/sqft)

    • Condition: ⬆️ (Brand new luxury vs. 2011 build)

    This property represents the luxury tier of the community, being a brand-new craftsman construction with high-end quartz, vaulted ceilings, and a two-car garage. Comparing it to 121 Running Bear Drive shows the premium required for new construction and modern floor plans like the ‘Willow’ layout. While the home for sale is well-maintained, it belongs to a different asset class than this newly built luxury residence.

    🟡 121 Running Bear Drive makes sense for the area as a more accessible option for buyers who prioritize value over brand-new construction premiums.

  • A small, gray house with white trim and a bright red front door, featuring two bay windows, sits in a wooded area with trees and mulch surrounding the front yard.

    • Sq Ft: ⬇️ (Smaller by ~250 sq ft)

    • Cost/SqFt: ⬆️ (Higher at $215/sqft)

    • Condition: ⬆️ (Fully renovated vs. personalized updates)

    This sold listing is located just a few doors down and provides a great benchmark for renovated interiors in the neighborhood. While 121 Running Bear Drive offers more total square footage and the benefit of a garage, this home commanded a higher price per foot due to its crisp, professional renovation including shaker cabinets and granite. It demonstrates that buyers in Lake Royale place a high value on move-in-ready, modern aesthetics.

    🟡 121 Running Bear Drive appears fairly priced as it offers a larger footprint and a garage as a trade-off for the high-end finishes found in this sold listing.
