The Fizbit

Fizbo Market Record — March 27, 2026 Among the 3 active listings in Fredonia, Arizona, this newly constructed 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch at 749 Riddle Drive is priced at $269,000, landing at the bottom of the local market — the 0th price percentile for both the city and the state. The city median sits at $318,500, meaning this property is priced 16% below where the Fredonia market centers. For a brand-new build, that spread is notable. Buyers comparing this against the city's other options will find it positioned as the clear value entry point, which cuts in both directions: it attracts price-conscious buyers quickly, but it may also invite questions about why new construction is priced below an older, fully rebuilt comparable. At $203 per square foot on 1,326 square feet, this home comes in 12% below the Fredonia city average of $231 per square foot. That per-square-foot figure places it at the 0th percentile for price-per-sqft within the city, making it the most affordable option by that measure among active listings. The 2025 build year pushes it to the 67th percentile for age — only one other Fredonia listing is newer. Buyers who weigh new construction premiums against existing inventory will find the value proposition here almost entirely in favor of this property on a pure cost-per-square-foot basis. The floor plan is designed with separation in mind: the primary suite sits at one end of the home adjacent to a formal front room, while two additional bedrooms and a family room occupy the opposite side. That split configuration plays well with buyers who need space for guests or a home office without sacrificing master bedroom privacy. The walk-in closet, smart thermostat, and vaulted ceilings round out a feature set that feels current — 10 total features documented, matching the city average for comparable listings. The 0.14-acre lot (6,098 square feet) is the smallest of Fredonia's active listings, placing it at an unrecorded percentile for lot size due to the limited comparison pool. For buyers prioritizing minimal yard maintenance, that works as a selling point rather than a liability. Covered parking is included, and the mountain views noted in the lot features add marketable context without requiring premium pricing to substantiate them. At 9 days on market against a city average DOM of 4, this listing is already sitting slightly longer than the typical Fredonia pace. That gap is not alarming given the very small market pool, but it does suggest the current pricing is not producing rapid urgency. The proximity to Kanab, Utah — a gateway to several national parks — is a genuine draw for buyers seeking recreation access or future short-term rental potential. The listing agent should be prepared to articulate the new-construction value clearly against the city's rebuilt 1974 comparable, as buyers in this price range will almost certainly evaluate both side by side. If offer activity stalls through the two-week mark, a modest price reduction or concession on closing costs would likely be enough to generate movement given the strong per-square-foot positioning.
