Fizbo Market Record — March 27, 2026 Among the 5 active listings in this Saint Paul zip code market, 2870 Castleford Court prices at $289,000, placing it at the 20th price percentile for the city. The local median runs $289,000, meaning this listing prices at the precise city median despite holding a below-median rank — a function of the distribution in a five-property comp set. Statewide against the Minnesota median of $399,900, this sits at the 29th percentile. This is a townhome in the Colby Lake subdivision of Woodbury, where the practical value argument is built on the association structure rather than individual property attributes. At 1,400 square feet in a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom split-entry townhome built in 1981, this listing carries a price per square foot of $206.43, above the local average of $196. That premium over the city per-square-foot average is attributable to the association coverage structure: the HOA includes exterior maintenance, lawn care, and snow removal, which eliminates the time and cost of three of the highest-frequency maintenance obligations for a homeowner in the Minnesota climate. For buyers evaluating total cost of ownership rather than purchase price alone, the HOA-covered exterior reduces the real carrying cost differential between this listing and lower-priced alternatives. The 1981 build year places this at the 40th year-built percentile for the local comp set — below the median construction vintage for active inventory in this market. For a townhome where exterior systems are association-managed, the 1981 build year's primary relevance is interior systems and finishes rather than the envelope and exterior components that are typically the highest-cost items for an individual homeowner. New carpet in the family room is the recent interior update noted in the listing. The family room with fireplace and an attached patio creates two distinct functional outdoor and entertaining areas within the unit's footprint. A deck off the kitchen and dining area adds an upper-level outdoor space that extends seasonal usability. A fireplace in the lower-level family room is a comfort feature that is not universally present in townhomes at this price tier. The combination of a dedicated family room separate from the main living level, two bath access points for a two-bedroom configuration, and the association's full exterior coverage creates a unit profile appropriate for buyers seeking low-maintenance residential ownership. For the listing agent, the positioning for 2870 Castleford Court is built on the association value proposition: $289,000 for a clean, move-in-ready townhome where exterior maintenance, lawn, and snow removal are institutionalized costs rather than individual obligations, in a market where those annual carrying costs in a Minnesota climate represent several thousand dollars per year in time and expense. The near-schools and parks location, combined with proximity to the east metro employment corridor, targets buyers who prioritize commute convenience and maintenance-free living over square footage maximization.
