Carter & Sims Addition
Great schools with outdoor access
Median $203K·Schools 7.8/10
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.

Estimates use a 6.49% 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.
