It’s Friday, and you know what that means. Well, okay, it’s Sweet 16 time for those of you who are fans of March Madness, but in Stapleton it’s time for our weekly real estate update. And it is madness in the world of Stapleton real estate! Ok, that’s a little dramatic, but this week’s update includes 14 new listings. In fact, there were more than 14 listings, but several homes already went under contract before we could publish this Scoop post, so we’ll go with the 14 number for now.
Here at Focus Real Estate, we’re extremely pleased to see more inventory come on the market this week, and the fact that several homes already went under contract is encouraging for sellers – it means the market is hot for well-priced homes.
New Stapleton Listings This Week
The Perfect Southside Home: Listed at $649,900, 2316 Akron Street is everything a Stapleton home should be. How does 4 bedrooms up, an adorable street, a huge front porch, and an unfinished basement you can make your own (how about a theater room, another bedroom and a workout room? The possibilities are endless!) sound? With a 3,800 sq. ft. canvas to work with, you’ll have plenty of room to grow from a square footage standpoint, which isn’t always the case in south Stapleton. Speaking of location, you can WALK to Bill Roberts or Westerly Creek Elementary. Stanley Marketplace is a quick stroll to the east, and the Bladium is a quick walk to the north. You’re wonderfully tucked into the neighborhood, but you’ll have no trouble getting everywhere you need to be. Finally, did I mention the backyard? There’s room for a vegetable garden, a flowerbed, an outdoor seating area, a kid’s basketball court, a kid’s soccer field, and on and on. Professional photos will be posted Saturday, so be sure to check out this listing this weekend.
Urban Chic meets Stapleton Convenience: I’m a sucker for the Terrace Homes that face Central Park on MLK. The fantastic brick facades hide big square footage and beautiful rooftop decks. If you’ve been waiting for one of these to pop up – you’re in luck! 9158 Martin Luther King Blvd’s 3,000 finished sq. ft. is sure to please with light filled rooms, a luxe master bath, and, of course, that fabulous rooftop deck with park and mountain views. I love the sleek kitchen and master bathroom, and of course, you have Central Park just outside your front door. These homes really are great to view in person – so check it out!
The Pool Life: It’s starting to feel like summer, and if you’re a pool person, check out 5070 Yosemite Ct #1. Across the street from the northside’s most popular pool, the Maverick Pool, this 3 bedroom, 3 bath, 2,470 square foot paired home is about as close to the pool as you can get. To give you an idea of how close you are, when my husband looked at the listing he excitedly told me: “I could throw a baseball into the pool from the front porch!” Listed for $500,000 and located in Conservatory Green, you’re also within walking distance of High Tech Elementary and all of Northfield’s stores and restaurants. If you buy this home, your sun-tanned, poolside kids (and spouse) will love you forever!
Under Contract Stapleton Homes This Week
12 Stapleton homes went under contract last week. In particular, when I wanted to pause on this beautiful Parkwood Chesapeake. When I toured the home, I fell in love. Even though the home is under contract, you should check out the photographs. This home is everything a million dollar Stapleton house can and should be.

* Our Friday real estate updates are meant to be a “roundup” type post where we discuss all listings in Stapleton, not just our own. It’s our way of making sure we follow the market closely and we share it with the Scoop readers, because we know many of you like to track real estate in the area as well. Many of the listings in these posts are not our company’s listings and we wanted to mention that here to make sure it’s clear. Thanks for reading the Scoop!
