This is the kind of place where you can sip your morning coffee on a covered patio while looking out over half an acre of your own land, with nothing but peaceful quiet around you. The pace here moves slower than the city — and that's exactly the point. With only three homes selling in the past year, this isn't a neighborhood where houses flip constantly; when people find their spot here, they tend to stay put and put down real roots.

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.
