Ryan, There was a home in this same area with 1500 sq. feet and it is also a 3 bedroom 2.5 bath and it was originally listed for 135,900 and sold for 133,900. This home went under contract in only 11 days and closed in June. This home was in excellent condition. What I am seeing in the market today is that homes must be in good condition and well staged in order to get some strong activity and get a fair market price. When I ran a quick search of the Stony Point area with the sq. footage at 1300 - 1600 sq. feet,3 bedroom, 2.5 bath , and two stories in the last 6 months I found the average price to be 136,016, 1477 sq. ft. and 44 days on market. If you would like more specific information or a more detailed market analysis please give me a call. I am very familiar with your area. I would be happy to help you. Best wishes! - Tue Aug 26 2008, 23:01

Crazy Cajun,

I would rate Mayfield Ranch very high. I have sold in this area and have several buyers who have shown a high interest in this area, so I am very familiar with the homes. The builders are closing this area out and the prices on resale for this area are good. The commute into and out of Austin is not too terrible for all of the benefits of living in this area. You are just up the road from the Williamson County Regional Park, you are 7 miles from the outlet mall, approx. 8 miles from the the 183 A toll and I-35. The new Cedar Park Regional Hospital is just down the road and they are building new shopping and dining. There is currently a Super Target, a new Academy, Office Max and some great dining areas around the new Cinemark movie theatre. Chick-Fil-A will be open soon. You are only a few minutes from the Avery Ranch complex where there are some great eateries like Waterloo and Z Tejas to name a few. . The schools are wonderful. I taught school for 8 years in Round Rock before making the leap into Real Estate full time, and I am married to a Leander ISD educator so I can tell you from a first hand experience that the schools in both districts are wonderful. In Round Rock the elem. is Cactus Ranch (exemplary) and the middle school is the new Walsh Ranch Middle School which should be phenomenal (it opens this fall). The High School is currently Round Rock High School which is a great school as well. You can see http://www.roundrockisd.org for ratings. Certain parts of Mayfield Ranch feed Leander ISD. They just had some incredible test scores come in from last year's state tests. The elem. school is the new Parkside Elem. which is expceted to be one of the most innovative schools in the area and the middle school is Wylie (opened last year) and the high school is Rouse which will open with Freshmen this year; see http://www.leanderisd.org for more school info. Mayfiled Ranch has the benefit of not being a MUD. This means you will see a lower tax rate in Mayfield than in some areas. I think you should take a close look into this community. You will love the area and the neighborhood. It is a very active and caring community. The extra few minutes to your commute may just be well worth it. If you would like more information or need any help please feel free to contact me; I would love to help you or answer any other questions you may have.
