This is a great example of ‘Apples to Oranges’ in the local market. While the home on Mays Crossroad is only slightly larger in square footage, it is a high-end custom farmhouse on over an acre of land with premium features like a waterfall kitchen island and mahogany doors. 185 Buckthorn Drive is a lovely, standard production home in a subdivision. The massive price gap reflects the difference between a custom estate and a neighborhood home.

This sold listing is a very close match to 185 Buckthorn Drive, as both are recently built homes in the same subdivision with similar interior finishes like LVP flooring and granite counters. While this home sold for a slightly lower total price, it is also over 300 square feet smaller than the home for sale. When we look at the price per square foot, 185 Buckthorn Drive actually comes in significantly lower, offering more living space for your money.

Comparing these two is like looking at mirror images in terms of size and quality, but the price difference is noticeable. This property on Honeycup Court sold very recently for significantly less than the current asking price of 185 Buckthorn Drive. Both homes feature the same ‘standard’ builder-grade luxury finishes like quartz vanities and stainless appliances, so there isn’t a clear visual upgrade at 185 Buckthorn Drive to justify the higher cost.
