The typical home in La Grange, Wisconsin is worth about $632,238 as of 2026-07-03, up 3.8% over the past year and up 29.6% over five years. Source: Zillow Home Value Index, compiled by Sawar Homes.
La Grange is one of Walworth County's three highest-valued municipalities. The typical home value of $632,238 as of April 30, 2026 ranks 3 of 21 in the county and sits about $186,000 — 42% — above the county median of $446,069.
The pace has shifted. Five-year growth of 29.6% works out to an average of roughly 5.3% per year compounded, but the most recent year added just 3.8%. The long trend is strong; the latest reading is cooler than that trend.
Among its listed peers, La Grange prices closer to Fontana-on-Geneva Lake ($670,816) than to Williams Bay ($545,006), Troy ($531,440), or Spring Prairie ($529,496).
Only Fontana-on-Geneva Lake, at $670,816, exceeds La Grange among the nearby peers in this data — a gap of about $38,600. Below La Grange, the drop is steeper: Williams Bay trails by roughly $87,000, and Troy and Spring Prairie cluster near $530,000.
The growth picture deserves attention from both sides of a transaction. A 29.6% five-year gain establishes real appreciation, while the 3.8% one-year figure — below the five-year average pace — suggests the recent market moved more slowly than the longer trend. Historical data cannot predict which pace applies going forward.
No ZIP-level values are available for La Grange in this dataset, and rent data is likewise not reported, so the town-level home value is the anchor figure.

Over the 12 months ending June 2026, 55 single-family homes sold in La Grange, Wisconsin in arms-length transactions, at a median price of $610,000. Half of those sales fell between $395,000 and $1,030,000. Source: Wisconsin Department of Revenue real estate transfer returns, compiled by Sawar Homes — every recorded sale, including for-sale-by-owner and builder-direct transactions that never appear in the MLS.
Zillow’s typical-home-value estimate for La Grange is $632,238, while homes that actually changed hands had a median price of $610,000 — a difference of -3.5%. These measure different things, and neither is wrong: the index estimates the value of every home whether or not it sold, while the sale figure reflects only the homes that changed hands, which usually skew toward the more affordable end of the market.
For buyers, the 3.8% one-year change is a relevant negotiating fact: this market appreciated more slowly over the past year than its own five-year average. Comparable inventory context matters too — Williams Bay, Troy, and Spring Prairie all carry typical values between roughly $529,000 and $545,000, which is $87,000 to $103,000 below La Grange. Knowing what that premium buys in a specific property is the core diligence question.
For sellers, La Grange's third-place county rank and 42% premium over the Walworth County median are solid footing, but the cooler one-year number argues for pricing discipline. Homes priced off the five-year trend rather than the recent year risk sitting. As always, past appreciation does not guarantee future results.
La Grange is a rural town at the edge of the Kettle Moraine State Forest's Southern Unit, home to the John Muir and Nordic trail systems used for mountain biking, hiking and cross-country skiing, with the Ice Age National Scenic Trail crossing the moraine ridges nearby. The Lauderdale Lakes chain — Green, Middle and Mill lakes — fills the town's east side with cottages, piers and summer boat traffic.

Yes, in this data. La Grange's typical value of $632,238 is about $38,600 below Fontana-on-Geneva Lake's $670,816.
