Why is neither Stone Canyon listing priced in the band that carried the most closings?

Stone Canyon has 2 homes for sale as of September 23, 2026, and neither one sits in the $500,000-$549,999 band, which carried 9 of the 25 Stone Canyon closings in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, a thin sample as every band on this page is, and the only Stone Canyon band with a published median, at $530,000. Those 2 listings sit in the $450,000-$499,999 band and the $800,000-$849,999 band at a median asking price of $637,500, against a median sale price of $535,000 across the 25 closings.

Stone Canyon is an all resale neighborhood with an old core. All 25 of those closings were resale and none was a new build, 18 of the 25 were built before 2000 and 7 of the 25 were built between 2000 and 2014, and not one of the 25 came from a house built in 2015 or later. Neither active listing is a builder listing and there are no builder names on the board, so the house that prices yours is a neighbor’s, and the median Stone Canyon closing was built in 1999.

Quick answer

Stone Canyon closed 25 homes in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026 at a median sale price of $535,000, a median cumulative days on the market to contract of 14.0 and 95.7% of the original asking price, on a median living area of 2,714 square feet and $210 per square foot. There are 2 active listings as of September 23, 2026 at a median asking price of $637,500, neither of them asking less than it first asked, and 1.0 months of inventory on the twelve-month basis, which carries a seller’s market label for the subdivision overall; that label is for Stone Canyon as a whole, and a price point changes which market a home is in, so your band tells you more than the label does. All 25 closings were resale, neither active listing is a builder listing, and the median closing was built in 1999.

What is my Stone Canyon home worth right now?

The middle of the Stone Canyon market was $535,000 across 25 closings in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, at $210 per square foot on a median living area of 2,714 square feet. The median closing was built in 1999.

The shorter view is thinner. Stone Canyon closed 7 homes in the 90 days ending September 20, 2026, which is a thin sample, at a median of $530,000 and $212 per square foot on a median living area of 2,839 square feet.

Measured against the year before, the price went one way and the house behind it went another: Stone Canyon’s median sale price was $528,000 in the twelve months ending September 20, 2025 and $535,000 in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, while the median living area behind those two prices was 2,392 square feet and 2,714 square feet over those same two periods. Price per square foot over those same two periods was $221 and $210.

The line to hold on to in Table 1 is living area: 2,392 square feet in the twelve months ending September 20, 2025 against 2,714 square feet in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, so a per square foot number carried over from the earlier period is not describing the same house.

Why is neither Stone Canyon home for sale priced where the neighborhood actually sells?

Because there are only two of them, and they sit at the two edges. Stone Canyon has 2 active listings as of September 23, 2026 at a median asking price of $637,500. One sits in the $450,000-$499,999 band, which took 4 closings in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, a thin sample with no band median published. The other sits in the $800,000-$849,999 band, which took 0 closings in that same period, a thin sample with no band median published.

The band that carried the most Stone Canyon closings is $500,000-$549,999, with 9 closings in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, a thin sample, at a band median of $530,000, and it holds 0 active listings right now. That is the whole problem with reading the board here: a buyer at the middle of Stone Canyon has nothing currently for sale to compare, and the most recent evidence at that price is a closed sale.

Neither of the 2 listings is asking less than its original asking price, and the median active listing has been listed 12.0 days so far, so both asking prices are still untested. The 25 closings behind them reached contract at a median 14.0 days to contract and finished at 95.7% of the original asking price in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026.

Am I competing against builders in Stone Canyon?

No builder is selling against you inside Stone Canyon. Neither of the 2 active listings is a builder listing and there are no builder names on the board, and of the 25 closings in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, 0 were new build and 25 were resale.

The build years say the same thing from the other side. Of those 25 closings, 18 were built before 2000 and 7 were built between 2000 and 2014, while 0 were built between 2015 and 2024 and 0 were built in 2025 or later. The median year built among the 25 is 1999, and on the 90 day view, which rests on 7 closings and is a thin sample, it is 1998.

That is a different pricing problem from the one in the parts of Round Rock where a sales office is still writing contracts. There is no model home inside Stone Canyon setting a finish standard and no builder price sheet for a buyer to hold next to your kitchen. Every comparison a Stone Canyon buyer makes is to a house from the same years as yours, so condition and updates, rather than vintage, separate one Stone Canyon house from the next.

How long does it take to get a Stone Canyon home under contract?

The median Stone Canyon closing reached a contract at 14.0 days to contract in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, and the same measure was 15.0 days to contract in the twelve months ending September 20, 2025. Cumulative days to contract counts the days a home was on the market before it went under contract, carried across relistings, so a relisted home does not start over at zero.

The share of the original asking price carries both periods too: Stone Canyon closings came in at 97.7% of the original asking price in the twelve months ending September 20, 2025 and 95.7% in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026. On the shorter view, the 7 closings in the 90 days ending September 20, 2026 are a thin sample, and they came in at 95.7% of the original asking price at a median 14.0 days to contract.

14.0 days to contract is quick by any reading, and Stone Canyon did it at 14.0 days to contract across 25 closings while finishing at 95.7% of the original asking price, so speed and price are separate questions here. A seller who reads 14.0 days to contract as permission to ask more is reading half of the record.

The 2 homes on the board have been listed a median 12.0 days so far, so nothing currently for sale in Stone Canyon has been listed long enough to show what a price that does not work looks like. Decide before the sign goes up what your price does by 14.0 days.

Which price band am I in, and does the label apply to me?

Your band decides most of what this page means for you. This page lists ten price bands for Stone Canyon, and no single band reached ten closings in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, which makes each band a thin sample.

Stone Canyon carries a seller’s market label at 1.0 months of inventory on the twelve-month basis. That label is for the subdivision overall, and a price point changes which market a home is in, so a Stone Canyon sale in the $450,000-$499,999 band and a Stone Canyon sale in the $850,000-$899,999 band are not in the same contest even though they share a label.

The $500,000-$549,999 band is the center of gravity, with 9 closings in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, a thin sample, at a band median of $530,000, and it is the only Stone Canyon band with a published median.

The bands around it carry smaller counts: the $450,000-$499,999 band took 4 closings and holds 1 of the 2 active listings, the $600,000-$649,999 and $650,000-$699,999 bands took 3 closings each, the $700,000-$749,999 band took 2, and the $350,000-$399,999, $550,000-$599,999, $750,000-$799,999 and $850,000-$899,999 bands took 1 each, all of them thin samples with no band median published.

Stone Canyon’s median sale price of $535,000 sits above the Round Rock median of $399,999 across 1,853 closings in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, and its 1.0 months of inventory sits below the town’s 4.2 months behind 647 active listings. Read the town line as context and your band as the measure.

Why does Stone Canyon show up under so many different names in the MLS?

Because the MLS carries each recorded section as its own name. Stone Canyon appears under thirteen spellings, including STONE CANYON, Stone Canyon, Stone Canyon Sec 01, Stone Canyon Sec 03 and Stone Canyon Sec 4, with further section spellings beyond those. Every spelling is counted here as one subdivision, which is why this page reads 25 closings where a section by section search reads a handful.

Two of those thirteen spellings differ from each other only in the case of a single letter, and one section appears both with a leading zero and without it. A search that matches the subdivision text exactly will drop part of the neighborhood on those spellings alone, so a comparable set of three or four Stone Canyon sales for the year is reading one section rather than Stone Canyon.

On the MLS city field there is no split to explain: all 25 closings carry Round Rock. For geography, the MLS listing fields carry Fern Bluff and Round Rock ISD. Attendance is set by the district and by the specific address, so confirm it for your own address with Round Rock ISD before it goes in front of a buyer.

How many Stone Canyon listings ended without a sale?

4 Stone Canyon listings ended without a sale in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, a non-sale share of 13.8%, which means listings that expired or were withdrawn by their off-market date, as a share of every listing that reached an outcome either way. Round Rock as a whole had 663 listings reach an outcome in the same period, at 26.4%.

Those sellers worked the same board as the 25 who closed. The measurable difference sits in two day counts already on this page: the homes that closed reached contract at a median 14.0 days to contract, and the 2 homes still for sale have been listed a median 12.0 days so far.

In a neighborhood where the typical sale was decided in 14.0 days, a Stone Canyon listing still on the board after its first month is already outside the pattern that produced the 25 closings.

Your situation

If your home would list in the $500,000-$549,999 band, you are at the center of Stone Canyon and you have no neighbor on the board to be compared against. That band carried 9 of the 25 closings in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, a thin sample, at a band median of $530,000, and it holds 0 of the 2 active listings, so the comparison a buyer makes is to closed sales rather than to a live asking price.

If your home would list in the $700,000-$749,999, $750,000-$799,999 or $850,000-$899,999 bands, you are reading thin samples: 2 closings, 1 closing and 1 closing in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026, with no band median published in any of the three and no active listing in any of them. The nearest listing to that range sits in the $800,000-$849,999 band, which took 0 closings in the same period, a thin sample, so the comparison has to be built house by house.

If your home was built before 2000, you are in the largest group here. 18 of the 25 closings in the twelve months ending September 20, 2026 were built before 2000 and 7 of the 25 were built between 2000 and 2014, and the median year built among all 25 is 1999, so an older build is the Stone Canyon norm rather than the exception, and the finish work a buyer compares is a neighbor’s and not a builder’s.
