612 N Main Street

Sold Jun 30, 2026
Sold for $554k less524 sq ft smaller$129 lower per sq ftOlder 1940s build vs modern custom estate

This 1940s home on North Main Street offers a very different lifestyle, focusing on downtown walkability rather than the private acreage found at 205 Edgewood Drive. While it has been updated and offers a significant amount of space, it lacks the modern custom construction and the expansive 2.75-acre lot of the home for sale. However, the price difference is substantial, as 205 Edgewood Drive is positioned at a much higher price point per square foot even when accounting for the differences in land and age.

Bottom line
If you value historic charm and being in the heart of town, this sold listing was a budget-friendly alternative, though it doesn't match the estate-like feel of 205 Edgewood Drive.

129 Jeffress Drive

Sold Aug 29, 2025
Sold for $382k less158 sq ft smaller$92 lower per sq ft1960s ranch vs modern custom estate

This ranch on Jeffress Drive is a great comparison for size and land, sitting on over two acres just like 205 Edgewood Drive. It features a finished basement and a lovely outdoor living area, but it retains more of its 1960s character compared to the high-end custom renovations at the home for sale. Even with those differences, the fact that this property sold for nearly half the price of 205 Edgewood Drive suggests the home for sale is reaching for a premium market that may be hard to justify.

Bottom line
This property shows that large homes on acreage are available in the area for significantly less, making 205 Edgewood Drive a choice for a buyer specifically looking for top-tier custom finishes and a 3-car garage.

105 S Elm Street

Sold Feb 9, 2026
Sold for $310k less21 sq ft larger$79 lower per sq ftHistoric restoration vs modern renovation

Comparing a century-old historic landmark like the home on South Elm Street to a modern custom build like 205 Edgewood Drive is really about choosing a lifestyle. The historic home offers incredible character and original details that you simply can't replicate, while 205 Edgewood Drive provides a more contemporary flow and modern infrastructure. Because these two properties cater to very different buyers, the price gap represents the trade-off between vintage soul and modern luxury.

Bottom line
This is a classic "apples to oranges" comparison where the higher price of 205 Edgewood Drive reflects its status as a modern luxury estate versus a historic restoration.
