WELCOME TO CRANBERRY HILLS

Established large-lot resale—for a longer search.

Cranberry Hills is Jake's Stuarts Draft Keep community for buyers who want established detached homes and larger-lot examples rather than new-construction amenities—and who can plan for limited public inventory.

Listing examples report HOA: No. Verify title and deed restrictions for the specific parcel. No current inventory count, median price, or days-on-market statistic is claimed.

i

Long-term Keep positioning: Treat Cranberry Hills as a comparison community for a patient search. Do not promise a ready supply of homes from this page.

PAST & PRESENT

A little history—and what's happening now

A little context for the place you're considering.

How Cranberry Hills took shape Read the story +
  1. Established

    Resale streets, not a new-construction phase

    Cranberry Hills is an established detached-home resale subdivision in the Stuarts Draft 24477 area. Examples include a 1987 home at 39 Cranberry Drive and a 1992 home at 16 Cranberry Drive—those dates describe individual homes, not the subdivision’s founding date.

  2. Lots

    Larger-lot examples—property-specific

    Public examples include roughly 1.17 acres at 16 Cranberry Drive, 1.8 acres at 88 Cranberry Drive, 2.1 acres at 39 Cranberry Drive, and 2.6 acres at 31 Cranberry Drive. Confirm acreage, boundaries, easements, and any view corridor for the property you consider.

  3. Association

    Listing-reported HOA: No

    Public listing examples report HOA: No. Verify title, deed restrictions, and any maintenance agreements for the specific parcel; no HOA does not mean no restrictions. No community pool, clubhouse, resident trail, or neighborhood park has been verified.

  4. Inventory

    Long-term Keep positioning

    Keep this community on a longer-term comparison list rather than promising a ready supply of homes. Public inventory research in November 2026 was thin; do not invent a current median or days-on-market statistic.

01

39 Cranberry Drive (MLS 680299) showed Pending $475,000 on CapCenter/Howard Hanna when opened November 5, 2026 ET—do not advertise it as available.

02

Dated sold examples span the high $380s to mid $520s and are not a present-day valuation band.

03

School listings for 39 Cranberry name Riverheads—different from Overlook’s MLS pathway. Confirm every address with Augusta County Public Schools.

ORIENTATION

U.S. 340, Offliter Road, and Cranberry Drive

Listing directions use U.S. 340 → Offliter Road → Cranberry Hills / Cranberry Drive. Use the Cranberry Drive map search, then confirm the exact address before visiting.

Compare real routes toward Staunton, Waynesboro, and regional interstate connections; no commute minutes or direct-interstate distance is asserted for this subdivision.

REAL ESTATE, WITH CONTEXT

Dated comps only—no “from” price

Public examples include approximately 1.17 acres at 16 Cranberry Drive, 1.8 acres at 88 Cranberry Drive, 2.1 acres at 39 Cranberry Drive, and 2.6 acres at 31 Cranberry Drive. These are individual examples, not a minimum lot size or a verified community-wide range.

39 Cranberry Drive, MLS 680299: CapCenter's opened page showed Pending, $475,000; Howard Hanna's indexed page agreed. Some syndication pages still showed Active. Do not advertise the home as available. It is not Jake's listing.

Historical examples are not appraisals. Dated sales spanning the high $380s to mid $520s do not establish a present-day valuation band. Verify the underlying MLS/deed record before reusing any figure in a pricing recommendation.

AMENITIES

No verified community recreation package

Public listing examples report HOA: No. Verify title, deed restrictions, and any maintenance agreements for the specific parcel; no HOA does not mean no restrictions.

No community pool, clubhouse, resident trail, or neighborhood park has been verified. Listing descriptions of residents walking or biking are not evidence of a built trail system. Stuarts Draft Park and regional Blue Ridge recreation are separate public destinations—not subdivision amenities.

EAT, SHOP & LINGER

Food, coffee & everyday errands

Local favorites are starting points, not paid placements. Hours, operators, and access rules can change; use the linked source before you go.

Stuarts Draft everyday options

Use local map searches for restaurants, coffee, and shopping in Stuarts Draft. Confirm hours and drive the route.

No restaurant endorsement or walkability score is claimed.

Staunton & Waynesboro evenings

Independent dining and events in downtown Staunton or Waynesboro are short regional trips.

Verify venues before you go.

Lot-care reality

Larger lots mean budgeting for mowing, drainage, trees, and outdoor maintenance—not an HOA grounds crew by default.

Ask what the seller has maintained and what remains buyer responsibility.

Groceries & services

Expect car-based trips for full grocery runs and many services.

Test the Offliter Road / U.S. 340 route at your usual times.

SCHOOL ASSIGNMENTS

Riverheads on one listing—confirm every address

The 39 Cranberry listing opened for research listed Riverheads elementary, middle, and high. Other indexed sources have reported Beverley Manor Middle, so middle-school assignment must not be hard-coded from aggregator data. This differs from the MLS pathway shown for Overlook.

Confirm the exact address and enrollment year with Augusta County Public Schools. This guide publishes no school ratings.

GETTING AROUND

U.S. 340 and regional connections

Plan from the exact Cranberry Drive / Offliter Road address rather than assuming interstate-adjacent minutes. Test your actual driveway-to-work route during normal hours.

Most errands and recreation trips remain car-based. Larger-lot living usually means budgeting travel time as carefully as acreage.

RELOCATION, MADE PRACTICAL

Moving to Cranberry Hills?

A useful relocation plan goes beyond a map pin. Jake can help you compare the daily drive, ownership details, and the way you want to spend an ordinary Tuesday.

Work, school logistics, recreation, shopping, and the trips you make every week.

02

Tour more than one area

Verify the address

School assignment, zoning, utilities, HOA rules, insurance, and current comparable sales.

BEFORE YOU BUY

Things every Cranberry Hills buyer should check

A practical buyer's checklist 6 things to verify +
01

Fresh availability check

Plan for a longer search. Ask Jake for a current MLS pull rather than relying on this page.

02

Do not advertise Pending homes

39 Cranberry was Pending on opened CapCenter/Howard Hanna pages—treat conflicting Active syndication as lag, not availability.

03

Title & restrictions

HOA: No on listings is not a title opinion. Confirm deed restrictions, access, utilities, boundaries, and easements.

04

Lot & systems

Budget for lot care and inspection of roof, HVAC, drainage, and any onsite systems on older homes.

05

School assignment

Have Augusta County Public Schools confirm the address—Riverheads on one listing is not a community-wide guarantee.

06

Dated comps only

Adjust historical sales for condition, size, land, and timing before using them in a pricing conversation.
