Glenwood House for Sale

Near the banks of the Ohio River, Glenwood offers access to major highways and Downtown Evansville. The Glenwood Neighborhood Association supports residents through neighborhood clean-ups and coat drives, as well as helping with the Glenwood Redevelopment Project, which created new affordable housing in the area. Traces of community support are also found throughout the area, from donations to classrooms at Glenwood Leadership Academy to afterschool programs at the CenterPoint Energy YMCA. The organization also plans community events like Easter egg hunts and block parties. Elm and spruce trees shade the sidewalks of Glenwood, and bushes and colorful gardens decorate grassy front lawns. The roads are wide enough to allow street parking. Most properties were built between the 1920s and 1980s, including bungalows, bilevels and ranch-style homes. “A lot of the homes in that part of town are very affordable,” Howie says. “Some of them are more project homes, so if you have someone that is looking for a house that they can fix up and build some equity, it’s a good place to do that.” Prices range from $100,000 to $140,000, although investment properties can cost $25,000 to $75,000.
