A median asking price of $1,293,500 and a price of $1107 per square foot indicate substantial homeownership costs, though a median of 62 days on market suggests buyers have time to consider properties. Daily life offers high convenience with a walkability score of 87, 9 schools within walking distance for families, 45 parks and green spaces, 127 restaurants, 51 cafés, and 24 grocers nearby. Excellent public transport is reflected in a transit score of 100, enabling reach to 3 of 5 metro destinations without changing vehicles. For renters, the median monthly rent is $3,940, while a gross rental yield of 3.7 percent and 13 homes for sale that look suite-capable offer insights for potential investors or those seeking supplementary income.
