The group ranges from two homes completed in 2026 to one built in 1961, and from a lot of about a quarter acre to a nine-acre wooded property. Three of the five are single-story homes.
No. 1 — $1,399,900 · 464 Stonebridge Pkwy, Valparaiso, Indiana
The week’s highest-priced sale was a new ranch at 464 Stonebridge Parkway in Valparaiso, which sold for $1,399,900.
