So what’s been selling in Steamboat Springs over the first half of 2009?
Â
According to our Multiple Listing Service stats: 53 residential units sold, of which 15 were single family homes, 15 were townhomes and 23 were condos.
Let’s take a look at the single family homes first:
Â
The least expensive home which sold in the first half of the year was in the neighborhood called Steamboat II, located west of town. A lot of the houses there were built in the 1970s and are of modest size, so it’s no surprise that is where the least expensive purchase occurred. It was a 1771 square foot, three-bedroom home with two bathrooms and a two-car garage. The asking price was $489,000 and it sold for $450,000.
The most expensive single-family home sale was for an 8536 square foot, 5 bedroom, and five bathroom home with a two car garage, located in the gorgeous valley of Strawberry Park right outside of town.
And town homes?
The least expensive town home which sold was an older town home above town in a small development called Suncrest. It was a 1267 square foot, three bedroom, two bathroom and one-car garage home, and sold for $295,000 after an asking price of $329,000.
Â
The most expensive town home sold for full price at $1,995,000, had four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a two-car garage, and was located in the beautiful, new Stonewood development near the ski area.
Now condos:
Of the 23 which sold, the one with the smallest price tag sold for $180,000 ($205,000 asking price). It was in Walton Village, in what’s considered The Mountain area, to the east of the ski area. At 565 square feet it has one bedroom and one bathroom.
The most expensive condo sold for $1,118,250 (asking price of $1,245,000) and at 1836 square feet, it has three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a one-car garage. This one is located at the new Trappeur’s at Bear Lodge very close to the ski area base.
And contrary to what you might be thinking, these were not all cash sales! Most of these were bought with financing so yes, people are getting loans out there – those lucky devils!
