There is one on Buena Vista just North of St Charles Place. Also one North of 466 but not sure where. As that was the area I wanted to live, I made sure I was upwind of it. I have never noticed a problem, but have had others mention it.
The power lines were a significant issue for me as my better half would not consider anything where they could even be seen. I personally would not want to be under or real close to them but she didn't even want to be able to see them. Doubt we are alone on that issue as homes close to them tend to have a significantly lower per sq ft price. Both lot and home.
If you analyze several hundred homes as I did, you start to see trends that impact value. Backing to streets, traffic circles, power lines, all have a negative impact. Cul-de-sacs, quiet areas, open space, town squares seems to all have a positive impact. There are many other more subtle items as well. Every buyer needs to decide what is important to them and build a profile of homes that meet that goal.
