Every Spring Lake street has its own story. Here's how the median sale price on 18 streets compares between the late 1990s (1995–1999) and the last few years (2022–August 2026). I've included only streets with at least four sales in each period.

What stands out
The biggest gains were on streets that started cheapest. Monmouth, Pennsylvania, Pitney and Jersey Avenues all had medians under $420,000 in the late 1990s. Each has since grown 7 to 9 times over, as older homes were replaced or renovated.
Madison Avenue was expensive then and is the most expensive now. Its 1990s median of $768,500 was the second highest on this list. Its recent median of $6.9 million is the highest by a wide margin.
Streets that were already pricey grew more slowly in percentage terms. Ludlow, Mercer, Essex and Monroe had 1990s medians of $600,000 or more and roughly quadrupled. Still a huge gain, just from a higher starting point.
Tuttle Avenue was the most active street in the 1990s with 21 sales in five years, and it also posted the biggest increase. It's had just four sales since 2022.
A note on small numbers
Spring Lake is under two square miles, so a street might see only a handful of sales in a few years. One new-construction sale can lift a street's median a lot. Treat these as a picture of how each part of town has changed, not a valuation of any one home.
For that, request a free valuation. I'll compare your home to recent sales on your street and the blocks around it.
