Lofts at Orchidhouse Real Estate Market Overview

Orchidhouse draws buyers who want walkable downtown living rather than a suburban floor plan, and the building’s small size keeps inventory tight.

As of mid-2026, active listings range from roughly $379,900 to $685,000. Pricing is driven by floor, square footage, exposure, ceiling height, and the extent of renovation — differences that matter far more in a loft building than in a typical subdivision. Two residences on the same stack can trade at meaningfully different prices. Contact The Holm Group for the most current pricing and availability.

Residences at Orchidhouse

The Lofts have great features and a distinctly urban character.

One- and two-bedroom loft layouts
Soaring exposed ceilings, generally from about eleven feet
Solid brick and concrete construction
Brick exterior
Custom-designed kitchen cabinetry
Corian or granite countertops

Large windows and abundant natural light
Residences built in 2002 and 2003

Because the building was designed as lofts rather than conventional condominiums, floor plans vary considerably from unit to unit — part of the appeal, and a reason unit-by-unit comparison matters.
