I took a look at home sales along Millhopper Road in NW Gainesville this week (aka NW 53rd Ave). One thing that stood out is the performance of luxury homes in the area.
San Felasco sunset
There were 6 large luxury homes in this area that sold in the last 6 months. That is an impressive concentration, and it shows that Millhopper Road is a hot area even in a cool market. (There have been 50 sales in all of Alachua County during the same time frame). There are 9 homes on the market as I am typing this. There is about 9 months of inventory at the current absorption rate.
It’s easy to understand why the area is so desirable if you have ever driven down Millhopper road or spent time at San Felasco Hammock Preserve State Park.
What’s the Bottom Line?
These homes averaged about 4,000 square feet and 10 years old. The median sale price was $632,500 after only 115 days on the market ($155/sqft).
