Carriage Hills Homes Are Getting Smaller

The median home size sold in Carriage Hills has shrunk to 1,906 square feet over the last 12 months, down from 2,142 square feet in the prior period. This represents an 11% decrease in living area as the market shifts toward smaller floor plans. ALEX Intelligence analyzed the rolling 12-month sales data to track this shift in home size trends. The data shows that while the median sale price dipped slightly by 2.5% compared to the prior period, the reduction in square footage is the most significant change. Buyers are currently purchasing homes with smaller footprints than they were a year ago. Despite the smaller footprint, the price per square foot has risen by 3.8% to $191, indicating that value per unit of space remains strong even as total home size contracts. The median days on market increased slightly by 2.9% to 35 days, suggesting that these smaller homes are moving at a pace similar to the prior period. This trend toward compact living spaces may reflect changing buyer preferences or inventory availability in the community. As the market continues to evolve, understanding how home sizes impact overall value is essential for both buyers and sellers navigating Carriage Hills real estate. Want to see this home?
