    • $78 Price per Sqft
    • 1,086 Sqft
    • 0.14 Acres

    • Cost/SqFt: ⬇️ (Sold for $60 less per sqft)

    • Condition: ⬇️ (Visibly dated and sold as-is)

    The home on Granville Street represents the lower end of the market, sold as an “as-is” investor opportunity with a tenant in place. Looking at the photos, it clearly needs significant cosmetic work and updates compared to the move-in-ready state of 305 Gilliam Street. The higher price for the home for sale is well-justified by its superior condition, updated bathroom, and prime historic district location.

    🟡 While this sold listing was cheaper, 305 Gilliam Street is a much better option for a buyer looking for a home that is already renovated and ready to enjoy.

    • Cost/SqFt: ⬆️ (Sold for $59 more per sqft)

    • Condition: ⬆️ (Brand new construction)

    This property is a brand-new modular home, which explains its higher price point and modern features like the center island and stainless appliances. 305 Gilliam Street is a classic stick-built cottage with historic character that you simply can’t replicate in new construction. The price difference here is quite large, making the home for sale look like a very strong value for those who prefer traditional architecture over a modular build.

    🟢 You are getting a lot of character and a solid stick-built home at 305 Gilliam Street for much less than the cost of new modular construction.
