70 photos and not one of the pickleball court. That alone might take $1M off the sales price.
If this pickleball home sells for asking then 101 Oakstone is a bargain, worth well over 5M in relative terms imo.
We spent $120k on our Cielo 1 home and it's only 5100 sq ft lot. We did less fancy stuff, but we did change the driveway to pavers, put tiles on the front stairs and entrance hallway, and most of the backyard is tiles, with retaining wall and wall fountain.

It was WAY WAY overpriced at $6M. It's probably still overpriced given its location. Everything is nice about this home other than the noise pollution from the pickleball court.

New Home Company completed inflated the Olivewood prices but the homes still sold like hot cakes due to too many rich FCBs.

New Home Company merged with Landsea Homes and renamed to Risewell Homes. And I meant Olivewood were selling like hot cakes back in 2024 even though prices were extremely inflated. It slowed down quite a bit late 2024 into 2025.

It's "under contract", contingent sale.

We saw this one. The outside and the views were nice. The house didnāt feel big. They did ah they had āmultiple offersā.
You definitely heard the pickleball bouncing off the rackets. They said the owner spent $200k on the backyard.

I disagree that 101 Oakstone is worth more than this pickleball home, let alone over $5M. This pickleball home has a bigger lot, but much much more importantly, its distance from the house to the back wall is well over 15 ft while the 101 Oakstone one is just like any other Olivewood home, 5 ft to the back wall. That's a HUGE minus. And the view for 101 Oakstone is not as good as this one. And this home also includes landscaping. I could believe that the owner did spend $200k on it.
