University Farm's 30 recorded sales ran from $345,000 to $695,000. The homes were built from 1983 to 2003, leaving differences in age, size and subsequent work that the median cannot describe on its own.

Why the range matters more than the median
Thirty sales spread across twenty years of build dates and a range of about $350,000 means the median describes the middle house, and very few houses are the middle house. Size, condition, and what has been updated since it was built move a University Farm house further than the neighborhood name does. A price for one house comes from the few sales that look most like it.
How often a house comes up
The map sets 30 sales against 554 homes and puts it at about one home in 37 selling each year. The two counts come from different records, the MLS and the county, so treat that as a rough figure. It suggests owners here tend to stay, and that a buyer who wants this neighborhood may wait for the right house.
For the long-time owner
A University Farm owner may be considering both the value of the house and how it works for the household now. Review the existing layout and likely work before deciding whether to remain, renovate or sell.
What a buyer is really pricing
In homes built between 1983 and 2003, a buyer looks past the square footage to the roof, the mechanicals, the windows and the kitchen. Two houses of the same size can sell far apart on those alone. An owner who knows what a buyer will find, before the buyer finds it, sets a better price.
What a sale would mean for your taxes belongs to your CPA. How the proceeds fit a retirement plan belongs to your financial adviser.
