What sold in Midtown Terrace — Q4 2025

What higher-value sales had in common — and why it mattered

Q4 2025 offered a clear snapshot of how buyers are valuing homes in Midtown Terrace. While sale prices ranged from the high $1.8Ms to the mid-$2.5Ms, the spread wasn’t random — and it wasn’t driven by square footage alone.

Having worked in Midtown Terrace for decades — and having sold more than 60 homes in the neighborhood — I’ve seen how small differences in layout, light, and outlook consistently affect value over time. Q3 reinforced many of those same patterns.


The Q4 Snapshot

Q4 2025 Market tone — thoughtful, value-focused, & selective

  • Sale range: ~$1.85M – $2.55M

  • Home sizes: ~1,650 – 3,200 sq ft

  • Typical buyers: long-term owners, move-up families, light- and layout-driven buyers


What Separated the Higher-Value Homes

Homes that sold at the top of the range shared several consistent traits:

  • Strong natural light and open outlooks

  • Layouts with clear separation between public and private spaces

  • Kitchens are integrated into everyday living areas

  • Functional parking and storage that worked for daily life

  • A sense of completeness — even without luxury-level finishes

Homes that traded lower weren’t “bad” homes. Buyers simply priced in trade-offs related to scale, flow, or future work.


A Closer Look at a Few Contrasts

Panorama Drive

Larger homes with flexible layouts and clear living zones pushed well past $2M, while smaller footprints on the same street traded meaningfully lower. Buyers weren’t paying for the address alone — they were paying for how long they could comfortably live in the home.

  • 83 Panorama Drive | 3 bed, 5 bath | 3,232 sqft. | Sold $2.52M

  • 71 Panorama Drive |4 bed, 3 bath |2,063 sqft. | Sold $2.22M

  • 172 Panorama Drive | 3 bed, 2 bath | 1,665 sqft. | Sold $1.88M

Knollview Way

With similar square footage, price differences came down to finish level, cohesion, and ease of use. Homes that felt finished and intentional commanded stronger results.

  • 75 Knollview Way | 5 bed, 3 bath | 2,337 sqft. | Sold $2.55M

  • 135 Knollview Way | 4 bed, 3 bath | 2,190 sqft. | Sold $2.20M

Dellbrook vs. Skyview

At the entry level of the Midtown Terrace market, buyers consistently favored turnkey livability over theoretical upside — rewarding homes that felt immediately usable.

  • 81 Skyview Way | 4 bed, 3 bath | 1,739 sqft. | Sold $1.95M

  • 57 Delbrook Ave | 3 bed, 3 bath | 1,834 sqft. | Sold $1.85M


What This Means if You Own or Are Buying

For homeowners, value isn’t just about upgrades — it’s about presenting light, flow, and functionality clearly.

For buyers, premiums in Midtown Terrace tend to be logical rather than speculative, tied directly to livability and long-term comfort.

After more than 60 sales in Midtown Terrace, one thing continues to stand out: buyer behavior here is remarkably consistent when you understand how these homes actually live.

If you’re curious how your home compares — or what buyers are responding to right now — I’m always happy to talk it through.
