The typical home in Wind Point, Wisconsin is worth about $429,912 as of 2026-07-03, up 1.8% over the past year and up 29.8% over five years. Source: Zillow Home Value Index, compiled by Sawar Homes.
Wind Point's numbers tell a cooling story. The village gained 29.8% in typical home value over five years — roughly 5.4% per year compounded — but only 1.8% in the most recent year. That is a marked deceleration from its own trend.
The typical value stands at $429,912 as of April 30, 2026, about $10,500 above the $419,415 Racine County median and 6th of 14 municipalities in the county.
Regionally, Wind Point runs about $25,900 below the seven-county median of $455,834. Above its county, below its region — with momentum flattening.
Within Racine County, Wind Point occupies the upper-middle of the price ladder. Rochester sits at the county median of $419,415, Caledonia comes in lower at $392,064, Waterford runs about $15,300 higher at $445,177, and Dover town tops the peer group at $490,873.
The deceleration is the defining feature of the current data. A 1.8% one-year gain — roughly $7,600 on a typical home — is about a third of the pace implied by the five-year record. Values still rose; they just rose slowly. Whether that is a pause or a new normal is not something the data can say.
| Homes sold (arms-length, single-family) | 36 |

| Median sale price | $441,500 |

| Government-backed financing (FHA/VA/USDA) | 0% |
| Seller-financed | 2.8% |
Over the 12 months ending June 2026, 36 single-family homes sold in Wind Point, Wisconsin in arms-length transactions, at a median price of $441,500. Half of those sales fell between $369,975 and $545,750. 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 Wind Point is $429,912, while homes that actually changed hands had a median price of $441,500 — a difference of +2.7%. 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, a market moving at 1.8% a year imposes a smaller cost on patience than one moving at 7%. Recent comparables in Wind Point remain close to current values, which makes list prices easier to sanity-check. Buyers comparing within the county can weigh Wind Point's $429,912 against Caledonia at $392,064 or Waterford at $445,177 to see what the roughly $10,500 county premium buys.
For sellers, five years of 29.8% growth is real accumulated equity, but the past year's 1.8% pace raises the risk of overpricing. Listings priced well above the latest closed sales have less market momentum to bail them out here than in faster-appreciating areas. Pricing tight to recent comparables is the data-supported approach; no strategy guarantees a specific result.
Wind Point occupies a Lake Michigan point at the north edge of the Racine area, its residential lanes ending at bluffs and shoreline. The 1880 Wind Point Lighthouse, one of the oldest and tallest working lights on Lake Michigan, anchors a public park with gardens and a beach area, and the nine-hole Shoop Park golf course plays along the lakeshore beside it.
