Every price on this page is an asking price on an active listing, taken from the MLS listings as of our latest check. An estate here is a home asking $1,000,000 or more and under $5,000,000. It is a price band and nothing else. Lot size, year built, levels and garage spaces are what each listing states. Five estates state no lot size and are left out of every acreage figure. A median needs three estates or it is left out.
Each row of the lot-size and city tables below opens the estates behind it, so a count can be checked against the listings it counts. The city table lists the twelve cities with the most estates.
This page leaves a lot out on purpose. It does not read remarks, finishes or amenities, and it says nothing about who an estate is for. What it can do is count the listings, size them by stated lot and floor area and show where each one is.
The cards under the chart show the newest estates first. The search above them looks through every active listing, so an estate that is not among the cards can still be found by city, price or size.
Most estates ask $1,000,000 to $1,500,000: 412 of the 785 priced, 52% of them. The median lot in that band is 0.8 acres.
Four asking-price bands hold an estate. The others: $1.5–2M has 191, $2–3M has 123 and $3M and up has 59.
The median floor area is 3,480 square feet in the $1–1.5M band and 6,419 in the $3M and up band.
Lot size separates the estates most: 381 of the 780 that state one sit on under one acre, 49% of them, asking a median of $1,399,000.
