Quiet lots near top schools

Sandy-Shores Sub breaks that mold—32 acres carved into spacious lots averaging 0.68 acres, where homes settle into the landscape rather than march across it. Homes here run around $848K, and the place has genuine breathing room; six parks within a mile and a restaurant just a 9-minute walk away keep things connected without feeling cramped.

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.
