Across the Miami Valley, strong sales keep coming from the neighborhoods that deliver space, condition and a fair price. In Piqua, a brick ranch in the Camelot subdivision just closed at $355,000, above its asking price, after five days on the market.
A Brick Ranch in Camelot Closes Above Asking in Five Days
Some home sales are notable for how long they took. This one is notable for how little time it needed. The brick ranch at 4015 W Camelot Road in Piqua closed on October 30, 2026 at $355,000, which is $5,100 above its $349,900 list price, after just 5 days on the market.
The home sits in the Camelot subdivision and was built in 1962. It offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and 3,336 square feet of space, including a finished basement with recreation and media areas and a bar. At the closing price, that works out to $106 per square foot.
Set against the rest of Piqua, the result stands out. Over the past 12 months the area has recorded 290 sales with a median price of $180,000. This sale came in 97% above that median, and it ranks 22nd of 290, which puts it among the strongest closings Piqua has produced in the last year. The highest sale in that same window was $550,000, so a $355,000 close sits well up the ladder.
The numbers make the headline, but the house explains them. A well-kept brick ranch, a layout with real room to spread out, a finished lower level and a backyard set up for hosting all land in one property, and buyers in Piqua responded within days.
Inside the House: Brick, Light and Room to Spread Out
The first impression starts outside. The listing describes a spacious lawn, mature trees and a covered front patio, the kind of approach that tells a buyer the house has been cared for before they reach the door. The exterior is classic brick, and the single-story ranch form that was common in 1962 still ranks high on buyer wish lists today.
Inside, the living room is built around a painted brick fireplace paired with a wood accent wall. Recessed lighting runs through the room, and the flooring is a vinyl plank product that continues without a break into the dining area and the kitchen. That continuous floor matters in a home this size, because it makes the main living space read as one connected room rather than a series of separate ones.
The kitchen is finished with white cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, with generous counter space and breakfast bar seating along one side. Sliding doors off the dining area open to the backyard, so cooking, eating and entertaining can move outdoors without anyone having to walk through a hallway to do it.
The home has three bedrooms, each with wood flooring and a ceiling fan. There are two full bathrooms. One has been updated with a new vanity, and the other is a separate bathroom with a walk-in shower, a feature plenty of buyers actively look for and not always easy to find in a ranch of this age.
Then there is the lower level. The finished basement adds recreation and media areas and a bar, plus ample unfinished space for storage. That combination is the real reason the house is rated at 3,336 square feet. A finished basement with defined zones gives a household a second set of rooms for movie nights, game days or simply a place to put the overflow, while the unfinished portion keeps the seasonal bins, tools and holiday boxes out of the living areas.
The Backyard Was Built for Hosting
Plenty of listings mention a yard. This one describes a full outdoor setup. Behind the house is a spacious backyard with an expansive patio and a pergola-covered seating area, a layout that gives a household both open space and a shaded place to sit. Together with the sliding doors off the dining area, it creates a direct line from the kitchen to the patio.
Practical features round out the property. An attached garage and a broad driveway handle everyday parking, and an additional detached outbuilding gives the owner a second structure on the lot. The listing frames the outbuilding as a source of convenience and versatility, and that is the right way to think about it: a place that can serve as storage or a work area depending on what the next owner needs.
None of these features is unusual by itself. What gets attention is the number of them on a single lot, and the fact that the outdoor spaces are as finished as the indoor ones. A buyer touring the house in the fall sees a patio, a pergola and a yard that are ready for use, not a to-do list. For many shoppers, that shortens the time between first showing and a decision, and five days on the market suggests it did exactly that.
How $355,000 Compares With the Rest of Piqua
The best way to understand this sale is to put it next to the Piqua numbers. Over the last 12 months, the area recorded 290 sales. The median sale price was $180,000, the median price per square foot was $134, and the median home spent 27 days on the market. The top sale in that period was $550,000.
At $355,000, 4015 W Camelot Road closed $175,000 above the median, or 97% above, and ranks 22 of 290. Put another way, only 21 other Piqua sales in the year topped it. That places the home among the strongest results in the area, roughly in the top eight percent of all closings.
The price per square foot tells a second story. This home closed at $106 per square foot, compared with the area median of $134, about a fifth lower. That is not a sign of a weak price. It is a sign of how much house the buyer received. At 3,336 square feet, the home is far larger than a typical Piqua sale, and a large share of that space is the finished basement. Square footage below grade tends to be priced at a discount to the main level, and it pulls the per-square-foot figure down even as the total price climbs.
For a buyer, that translates into a clear value argument: a three-bedroom brick ranch with two full baths, a finished lower level, a patio and pergola, an attached garage and an outbuilding, at a cost per square foot well under what the typical Piqua home commands. For a seller, it shows that a house with this much finished space can reach the upper tier of the local market.
Five Days in a 27-Day Market
Speed is the other half of this result. The median Piqua home over the past year took 27 days to sell. This one took 5, so it moved more than five times faster than the typical listing in the area.
The pricing path was also clean. The home was listed at $349,900, a number that sat just under the $350,000 mark, and it closed at $355,000, a premium of 1.5%. In a market where the median listing needs nearly a month to find a buyer, a full-price-plus outcome inside a week is the sort of result that tells you the list price and the product were lined up.
That matters for the comp set as well. When a home that is priced in the mid-$300,000s sells in days and above asking, appraisers and agents get a data point that is hard to dismiss as a stretch. It was a market-tested price, set by the list and then confirmed by a buyer who was willing to pay more to secure the house.
It also helps to remember what kind of home it is. Larger ranches with finished basements do not turn over often at this level in Piqua, and when one is presented well, buyers who have been waiting for that combination tend to move fast. The listing remarks lean on exactly those strengths: gathering spaces inside and out, and room to spread out.
The Closest Comparable Sales
Recent nearby sales help frame the result. The closest match by size and price is a home on Stratford Drive, a three-bedroom house of 2,280 square feet that sold for $325,000 on October 30, 2026, the same day 4015 W Camelot Road closed. The Camelot Road home is about 1,056 square feet larger and sold for $30,000 more. Stratford Drive works out to roughly $143 per square foot, which shows how a bigger home with a finished basement spreads its price across more space.
A second comparison is a four-bedroom home on W Greene Street with 1,951 square feet, which closed at $261,000, also on October 30. That works out to about $134 per square foot, right at the Piqua median. The Camelot Road sale cleared it by $94,000, with more than 1,300 additional square feet.
The rest of the recent activity sits at a lower tier. Three smaller homes, ranging from about 726 to 1,264 square feet, closed between $85,000 and $130,000 in the same stretch of days. Those sales show how wide the Piqua market is, and how much separation there is between a starter-size house and a large, updated ranch with a finished lower level and outdoor living space.
Taken together, the comparables bracket the Camelot Road result neatly. It is above the closest similar-sized sale on Stratford Drive, well above the typical Piqua transaction, and supported by square footage that none of the nearby comps can match.
What the Sale Means for Piqua
A sale like this is one data point, but it is a useful one. It shows that in Piqua, buyers will pay a premium, and pay it quickly, for a house that combines condition, space and outdoor living. The finished basement, the updated bathrooms, the vinyl plank flooring and the pergola-covered patio are the type of features that separate a good listing from the pack, and the buyer response here suggests the market noticed.
For owners of larger brick ranches in Camelot and the surrounding blocks, the result offers a reference point that is easy to explain: $355,000 for 3,336 square feet, built in 1962, closed in 5 days. For agents and appraisers, it adds to a comp set that has few entries at this size and price.
The larger picture is steady rather than dramatic. With 290 sales in the last 12 months and a median of $180,000, Piqua is an active market, and the upper end is showing that it can support prices well beyond the median when the home delivers. 4015 W Camelot Road did, and it closed above its asking price as proof.
