The platted addition sits on Greenville's west side with a remarkable density of parks—ten within a mile—anchoring the neighborhood's outdoor culture. Corner lots and generous spacing are standard here, and most homes sit close enough to the city bike trail and schools that you won't need a long drive for either. A grocery is about a 13-minute walk, and a dozen restaurants cluster nearby; dinner out is genuinely accessible on foot. Woodbeck Lake lies just over a mile away for weekend exploring. The neighborhood reads as established and straightforward—ranch and two-story homes, updated kitchens, finished basements, fenced yards—with the kind of practical amenities (trails, shopping, medical care nearby) that make day-to-day living uncomplicated.

To buy a median-priced Carter & Sims Addition home (around $200,250) at today's 6.65% 30-year fixed rate with 20% down, you'd need roughly $36k/year in household income to qualify — an estimated monthly payment of $1,349 (principal, interest, property tax est., and insurance).

Down paymentMonthly paymentIncome needed
20% $1,349/mo$35,969
10% (+PMI)$1,552/mo$41,399
5% (+PMI)$1,621/mo$43,225

Estimates use a 6.65% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
