Redfin cited a $489,000 median sale price for the most recent month, up 11.4% year over year; median sale price per square foot was $163, up 19.0% year over year -- both measures pointing the same direction (real, ongoing appreciation).
Listing-price figures confirm a similarly high price tier
Recently sold homes carried a $470,000 median list price, while active MLS listings carried a $466,000 median -- both consistent with (though distinct from) the closed-sale median above, together painting a coherent picture of a genuinely high-priced market.
Growth demand, not just amenity premium, likely drives the price level
Blythewood's rapid population growth (58.7% since the 2020 Census) and the Scout Motors buildout's incoming workforce are real, plausible demand drivers behind this batch's highest median sale price -- worth understanding as an active growth story rather than an already-settled luxury-suburb premium.
