Here's what we think happened.

It ranked first on save velocity, total saves, listing freshness and asking price per square foot against the other active listings. The raw save count stays private below our publication threshold.

From the listing: “Welcome to this well maintained, one-owner home which delivers an abundance of space, comfort, and storage.”

What stands out
  1. Soaring cathedral ceilings and natural light greet you in the formal living space while terra-cotta tile floors accent the kitchen, dining and family rooms.
  2. The large dining area provides built-in cabinetry and direct backyard access, while the family room offers a cozy window seat next to the brick fireplace & wet bar.
  3. Upstairs you'll find an oversize primary suite, complete with a fireplace, private sitting area, multiple closets, and access to a secluded balcony.
