The wide residential streets and sidewalks line past small but neat front yards, shrubbery and decorations adorning front doors and short porches. With most homes built between 2004 and 2008, Tradewinds is almost entirely residential, save for a small pocket commercial area in the northern portion of the suburb. Contemporary ranch homes and new traditional properties sport brick faces, gabled roofs and large windows. "There's a great school right in the neighborhood, which draws in a ton of people. And for them being relatively new homes, the prices are low, says Becky Williams, Realtor with Fathom Realty, who's been selling homes in the area for over a decade. "It is right by the Tradewind Airport, though, so it can be noisy at times." Due to the planned nature of the suburb and the similarity of both the construction era and square footage, price tags don't fluctuate much in Tradewinds. The majority of properties sell between $210,000 and $260,000.
