15 Princeton Manor Drive
Sold Mar 12, 2026
Sold for $250k more490 sq ft larger$55 higher per sq ftNewer build with high-end luxury finishes
This sold listing on Princeton Manor Drive represents a higher tier of luxury and age compared to the home for sale. While both properties offer the convenience of main-level living with an upstairs bonus space, this home was built over a decade later and features significant upgrades like 10-foot ceilings and a custom kitchen with a copper farmhouse sink. The price premium here is quite clear, as you are paying for a much newer structure and a larger, meticulously manicured acre lot.
Bottom line
The higher price point of this property is justified by its newer age and custom luxury details, making 185 Briarwood Place a more attainable entry point for the area.

145 Traylee Drive
Sold Nov 24, 2025
Sold for $185k more354 sq ft larger$43 higher per sq ftSimilar age and quality of finishes
Comparing the home for sale to the property on Traylee Drive highlights a great opportunity for you. While the Traylee home is a traditional two-story layout, 185 Briarwood Place offers a ranch-style floor plan which typically commands a 15% price premium for the convenience of single-level living. Despite this, the home for sale is actually priced lower per square foot than this two-story sold listing, even though they were built around the same time and share similar interior quality.
Bottom line
185 Briarwood Place stands out as a strong value here, offering the preferred ranch layout at a lower cost per foot than a nearby two-story home.

75 Anna Marie Way
Sold Apr 24, 2026
Sold for $60k more109 sq ft larger$16 higher per sq ftSignificantly newer with modern interior styling
The home on Anna Marie Way sold for the exact same price as the current asking price for 185 Briarwood Place, but it offers a much newer build from 2019. You'll notice more modern design choices in that home, such as the white cabinetry and coffered ceilings. However, the home for sale sits on a larger lot and offers a more 'custom' feel with its rocking chair porch and wooded privacy, which balances out the age difference.
Bottom line
This comparison shows that while you might find newer homes at this price point, 185 Briarwood Place offers a larger lot and a more private, established setting.
