Living in Sunshine Hills Woods: What the Listings Say

Detached houses make up 61. 7 percent of the 60 active listings in Sunshine Hills Woods, or 37 homes. That sets the tone here. The median home was built in 1980, so much of this stock has decades behind it. Condos account for 10 listings at a 16. 7 percent share, and townhouses add another 9 at 15 percent. Two half duplexes and two homes in an other category round out the mix. The median living area sits at 2,034 square feet, and the median list price is $1,269,950. Detached houses carry a median of $1,399,000, while condos come in at $569,950 and townhouses at $879,900. Delta buyers see a wide spread. List prices run from $429,999 to $3,248,888, with 32 of the 60 listings falling in the $1M to $1. 5M band. New builds represent 20. 7 percent of what is on the market, so the older median year sits alongside a steady share of recent construction.

That is a full-size home, not a starter box. At the median price per square foot of $593, the numbers behind a detached purchase add up quickly, and most of those homes date to around 1980, so you plan for maintenance on older systems. Strata living reads differently. The median strata fee sits at $386 a month, which covers the shared upkeep on the 10 condos and 9 townhouses on offer. That fee sets your baseline carrying cost before taxes and utilities. Sunshine Hills is the most active strata address here with 11 listings, followed by Scott & Nicholson at 3, Chelsea Gate at 2, and Sunridge Estates at 2. A condo at a median of $569,950 with a $386 monthly fee gives you a very different monthly picture than a $1,399,000 detached house with no strata bill but a yard and a roof to manage. Pick the trade-off that fits how you want to spend your weekends.

Start with the band that holds the most inventory. Thirty-two of the 60 listings sit between $1M and $1. 5M, so that is where your first afternoon of viewings should go if a detached house is the goal. Pull the three-bedroom and four-bedroom options side by side. The 16 three-bed listings carry a median of $1,154,450, and the 14 four-bed homes median $1,394,000, so the jump from one to the other is where you decide how much space you actually need. If a strata home suits you, book time at Sunshine Hills, which has 11 of the active listings. Twenty-one homes came to market in the last 30 days. Fresh options keep arriving.
