Woods & Meadows

Woods & Meadows is a lovely community located in a suburb just North of Poulsbo, and is close to Hwy 3.  Commuting times are short being only 10 minutes to Poulsbo and about 15 minutes to Naval Base Kitsap at Bangor.  Silverdale, which is the location for the Kitsap Mall, is just an additional 5 minutes from there.

The 149 homes in Woods & Meadows are situated on an average of nearly 1/2 acre lots, which are all nicely landscaped and maintained.  An attractive aspect to this neighborhood community is the spacious sophisticated rural feeling throughout the community.  This is due to brilliant planning and the fact that there are over 60 Acres of common areas including parks, trails and nice wide streets with landscaped and forested islands.

Here are some recent photos of the community:

The Woods & Meadows subdivision was originally developed by the Chaffee Corporation previously based in Silverdale, WA. and the first home was built here in 1993, while the last was built in 2004, however; most were built around 1999 (that’s the median and average year built).  Over 90% of the homes were built by the Chaffee Corporation, but over the years they did sell about a dozen lots to other high quality builders which maintained the continuity of quality design & construction in the community.

It’s important to note that while both the Tax Assessed Valuations and the Auto Valuation Models can be instructive about home values, these numbers may not be keeping pace in real time with what is actually occurring in the market at any given time. The AVM, values are calculated more recently than the Tax Assessed Values, but they are based largely upon a statistical sample and do not reflect special individual home features, upgrades or undocumented unique characteristics. The true market value is dependent primarily upon the recent most comparable sales, and then appropriate adjustments made. The best way to obtain the current value of your home without paying for a full appraisal is to contact your Real Estate Broker and ask for a current CMA.  If you don’t have a Broker you prefer, or one are currently working with, my partner Jana Salmans or myself would be very happy to assist you. Just give us a call or e-mail us, our contact information can be found at the top main menu and we will be happy to assist you.
