The Huntington Woods housing market in 2026 can look completely different depending on which statistic you pull.
Redfin’s June 2026 data showed a median sale price of $526,713, down 5.1 percent from the prior year. Zillow’s modeled average home value reached $550,588 in July, up 4.6 percent year over year. Meanwhile, individual Huntington Woods homes have recently sold anywhere from the upper $300,000s to more than $1 million.
So is the Huntington Woods housing market going up or down?
The more useful answer is that Huntington Woods is too small and too varied for one citywide number to tell the entire story.
I live here, on 11 Mile, and spend a lot of time running and walking these streets. One of the things that becomes obvious when you know the neighborhood block by block is just how different two Huntington Woods homes can be despite being separated by only a few minutes.
That matters when we talk about value.
Here is a quick snapshot of the Huntington Woods housing market based on the latest available data through August 2026.
Huntington Woods Home Prices in 2026
According to the market research I compiled through August 2026, Redfin reported a June median sale price of $526,713, an average market time of 11 days, 13 closed sales during the month, and a median price per square foot of approximately $269.
Zillow’s July Home Value Index produced a different number, estimating the average Huntington Woods home value at $550,588, up 4.6 percent compared with the prior year.
Those figures are not necessarily contradictory.
Redfin’s median measures homes that actually sold during a particular period. Zillow’s Home Value Index is a modeled measurement designed to estimate changes across the broader housing stock. Zillow itself describes ZHVI as a measure built from property level home value estimates rather than simply the median of that month’s closed sales.
In a city this small, that distinction is important.
A month containing several smaller bungalows will produce a very different median from a month containing multiple large renovated homes on York, Hendrie, Salem, or Borgman.
That is why I would never value an individual Huntington Woods house simply by multiplying its square footage by a city average.
Inventory Is Still the Bigger Story
Huntington Woods contains approximately 2,364 homes, according to the City, and Census data shows an unusually high 96.1 percent owner occupancy rate.
Residential turnover in Huntington Woods is relatively limited, which helps keep available inventory tight.
My August market research found public listing portals showing roughly 7 to 15 homes for sale depending on the portal and its inclusion rules. Homes.com estimated only about 1.8 months of housing supply.
That scarcity is a major reason desirable properties can attract attention quickly.
But scarcity does not mean every house automatically sells for whatever price a seller chooses.
That is where the individual sales become much more interesting than the headline median.
What Is Actually Selling in the Huntington Woods Housing Market?
Here are four 2026 transactions that illustrate how wide the Huntington Woods market can be:
| Property | Sale Price | Market Result |
|---|---|---|
| 8606 Hendrie Blvd | $485,000 | 2 days, about 8% above list |
| 10074 Lincoln Dr | $527,000 | 3 days, about 6% above list |
| 26329 York Rd | $810,000 | 4 days, about 8% above list |
| 10024 Borgman Ave | $1,050,000 | New construction, about $408 per sq. ft. |
The Hendrie, Lincoln, and York sales are independently reflected in Realcomp derived public sale records, while Borgman closed at $1.05 million in March.
These are four houses in the same 1.5 square mile city, yet they represent very different price points.
That is Huntington Woods.
The York sale reached $810,000 for an extensively improved 1927 Tudor. Borgman demonstrated the market’s appetite for completely new construction at the seven figure level. Lincoln sold rapidly above asking in the $500,000s, while Hendrie attracted enough early competition to close roughly 8 percent above list.
At the same time, the research also found homes that required significantly more market time and ultimately sold below their original asking prices.
The lesson is simple:
Huntington Woods is a low inventory market. It is not a price insensitive market.
Why Your Street and Your House Matter So Much
Two Huntington Woods homes with similar square footage can perform very differently based on architecture, updates, lot, layout, garage configuration, renovation quality, traffic exposure, historical character, and precise location.
Even the city’s development history helps explain some of that variation. Huntington Woods includes the early Bronx Subdivision, the Hill Historic District, later Huntington Woods development, 11 Mile frontage, winding interior streets, modest postwar homes, large Tudors, and modern infill construction.
That is why homeowners wondering about their property’s value are better served by a property specific analysis than by a citywide automated estimate.
If you are beginning that conversation, my Huntington Woods home value review is designed specifically for that purpose.
If you want to see how much those differences can matter, I break down several recent examples in my guide to determining a Huntington Woods home value.
What This Means for Huntington Woods Sellers
For sellers, limited inventory is an advantage, but strategy still matters.
The homes producing the strongest outcomes tend to create a compelling combination of price, presentation, condition, location, and buyer demand. Pricing too aggressively because “nothing is for sale in Huntington Woods” can still cost valuable early momentum.
If you are considering selling a home in Huntington Woods, I would rather study the closest competing properties and recent relevant sales than hand you a flattering citywide number that does not reflect your house.
The objective is not simply getting listed.
It is positioning the property so buyers understand its value when the market first sees it.
What This Means for Huntington Woods Buyers
Buyers face the other side of the same equation.
There may only be a handful of realistic choices available at any given time. When a particularly strong property appears, waiting several days to begin thinking about financing, value, inspection strategy, or offer structure can put you behind.
That does not mean every buyer should overpay.
It means understanding the comparable sales and the specific property before competition forces a rushed decision.
My home buying guidance for Huntington Woods and Metro Detroit goes deeper into the strategy I use with buyers from the initial search through negotiations, inspection, appraisal, and closing.
My View From Inside Huntington Woods
I spend a lot of time studying Huntington Woods professionally, but I experience the neighborhood as a resident first.
I live along 11 Mile, which is why I use The 11 Mile Realtor as part of my local brand. I run and walk through Huntington Woods constantly. I currently serve as Ways and Means VP of the Huntington Woods Men’s Club, and I also serve on the Centennial Committee helping plan our community’s 100th anniversary celebration at the Detroit Zoo.
The Men’s Club’s current board publicly lists me as Ways and Means VP for the 2026 and 2027 board year.
None of those roles replaces market data, and none represents an endorsement of my real estate business.
What they do give me is something difficult to manufacture from outside the neighborhood: continuous exposure to the streets, homes, projects, conversations, and physical changes occurring around Huntington Woods.
I think that local context becomes especially valuable in a market where individual streets and individual houses can behave so differently.

The Bottom Line on the Huntington Woods Housing Market
The 2026 Huntington Woods real estate market is still defined primarily by scarcity and property specific demand.
The citywide statistics matter. But the gap between a $485,000 Hendrie sale, an $810,000 York sale, and a $1.05 million Borgman sale shows why the median should be the beginning of the analysis rather than the conclusion.
If you own a home here, the most important question is not simply, “What is the Huntington Woods median home price?”
It is:
What are buyers likely to pay for my particular home, on my particular street, in the market that exists right now?
That is where truly local real estate analysis starts.
Curious What Your Huntington Woods Home Could Sell For?
Citywide statistics are useful, but the value of a Huntington Woods home can change significantly from street to street. I can prepare a property specific analysis based on your home, recent comparable sales, condition, and the current buyer pool.
Huntington Woods Housing Market FAQs
Is Huntington Woods a seller’s market in 2026?
