Interior Features
Homes in this range tend to offer premium but not ultra-custom finishes. Expect quality kitchens, good cabinetry, multiple living spaces, and solid floor plans that balance comfort and function.
Lot and Outdoor Features
Lots are generally decent size, sufficient for comfortable privacy. Outdoor living might include basic patios or modest yards rather than full estate-style amenities.
Buyer Value Perspective
This band represents a lower entry into luxury living in The River Club. It appeals to buyers who want a substantial home with quality finishes, but who may not need or desire all the bells and whistles of a top-end estate. For many, it is a solid value entry into the community.

Value Insight
For buyers who want a spacious, well-equipped home in a top community but don’t necessarily need top-tier estate features, this is often the “sweet spot.” Balance of size, quality, and price tends to favor long-term value.
What $4M–$5M Typically Buys You
Estate-Level Size and Layout
At this top tier of the $2M–$5M range, you are entering true estate-level homes. These often offer 10,000 to 14,000+ square feet, with 5–7+ bedrooms, multiple full and half baths, and additional spaces like formal living rooms, media rooms, wine rooms, etc. Some homes push toward the upper end of lot and build size seen in The River Club.

Value and Lifestyle Consideration
For buyers seeking maximum comfort, privacy, and long-term value, this tier offers the full potential of The River Club lifestyle inside the $5 M budget. These homes are often estates that appeal to high-net-worth buyers wanting substantial equity and property quality.
What Affects Value Inside the $2M–$5M Range
Several factors influence what you get for your money:
-
Lot position and lot size. A larger lot or a lot with more privacy or better orientation tends to command higher value.
-
Home condition and interior renovations. Updated, well-maintained homes tend to hold value better.
-
Home size and layout efficiency. Larger square footage and thoughtful design (good flow, usable rooms) improve value.
-
Supply and demand inside the community. As inventory changes, homes in good shape at reasonable price per square foot often stand out.
-
Market conditions and buyer preferences. Interest rates, local economic conditions, and luxury-buyer demand shape what homes in this range are worth.
