3601 Carole Court

Sold Sep 18, 2025
Sold for $125k more47 sq ft smaller$42 higher per sq ftCustom build with pool and 3 acres

This sold listing is right next door and offers a great benchmark for the area. While the home for sale at 3603 Carole Court is slightly larger, this property commanded a higher price due to its massive 3-acre lot and private in-ground pool. Both homes share high-end 2019/2020 construction quality, but the extra land and outdoor amenities here justified the premium.

Bottom line
3603 Carole Court appears fairly priced as it lacks the pool and extra acreage of this neighbor but offers a nearly identical modern interior.

1196 Smith Creek Way

Sold Aug 13, 2025
Sold for $173k less403 sq ft smaller$25 lower per sq ftDated 2007 finishes vs 2019 modern

This home sold for significantly less, but the age difference is very apparent when looking at the interiors. While 3603 Carole Court features 2019 modern aesthetics like white cabinetry and stone accents, this property has 2007-era finishes including honey-toned hardwoods and darker cherry cabinets. The home for sale is also larger and sits on more land, which accounts for the step up in price.

Bottom line
The higher price for 3603 Carole Court is a reasonable trade-off for 12 years of newer construction and a more contemporary open-concept design.

1203 Smith Creek Way

Sold Sep 9, 2025
Sold for $4k more695 sq ft smaller$67 higher per sq ftSimilar age, but has a pool

This property is a very strong comparison as it was built the same year as 3603 Carole Court. Although it is smaller, it sold for a much higher price per square foot because of its luxury outdoor oasis, which includes a custom saltwater pool and waterfall feature. 3603 Carole Court offers significantly more interior living space and a larger lot, making it a very attractive alternative for those who prefer more house over a pool.

Bottom line
3603 Carole Court represents a good value, offering more square footage for a much lower price per foot than this similarly aged neighbor.
