AMENIA — The 12-month trailing median price for a single-family home in Amenia came in at $396,420 for the period ending Feb. 28, 2026 — its highest point since May of 2024 as home values across Dutchess County continued to edge higher.

The figure marks a signficant increase from the $349,900 median recorded for the 12 months ending Feb. 28, 2025, but less than $405,00 for the comparable period ending Feb 29, 2024.

A total of 32 homes sold in the 12 months ending Feb. 28, 2026, up from 23 sales during the same period a year earlier and largely in line with the 31 sales recorded for the 12 months ending Feb. 28, 2024. (Sales figures exclude condominium transactions at Silo Ridge.)
