Many of the area's original cape and ranch homes have been expanded, says Leanora Ackley, an agent with Prudential Douglas Elliman.
Condos: The Horizon, a new luxury 55-and-over building, and Maple Tower recently opened. Others are older.
Co-ops: Studios to two-bedroom units at Post House are currently listed on Multiple Listing Service of Long Island's Web site for $59,000 to $159,990.
New construction: Four new homes listed from $879,000 to $925,000 are under construction in Salisbury.
Beautification projects: A new brick-paved village square has benches, lamp posts, a waterfall and an info kiosk.
