Alexander combines spacious living with community involvement

Just 17 miles south of Little Rock Alexander is a place where a strong community feel meets the quiet of secluded living. “You get a small-town feel, and a lot of the houses have significant acreage with them so you’re not as close to your neighbor,” said Buffy Howard of Truman Ball and Associates Real Estate. “It’s a great place for people who want some peace and quiet but there’s also a great deal of community involvement. The local government puts on festivals and parades throughout the year, and you can find some sort of community event every week.”

Ranch-style homes at the end of long driveways and on large lawns

Many of the homes in Alexander feature either brick or vinyl siding and are ranch-style houses, while some streets are lined with larger, four-bedroom homes with big backyards. There are a variety of neighborhood types in the Alexander area, from planned gridded areas with well-manicured yards to more densely wooded areas in which homes sit back farther from the streets and have plenty of space for owners looking to enjoy the solitude. You won’t have to fight for on-street parking as the single-family houses come equipped with long driveways and multi-car garages. Prices range from just over $300,000 for multi-story brick homes to just under $200,000 for ranch-style homes in the more rural areas.

A-rated schools with clubs and hands-on robotics programs

The Bryant School District is one of the major draws to the area. “I think the schools have a big part in why people are coming to and staying in Alexander,” says Howard. Students begin at Robert L. Davis Elementary, which has an A- rating on Niche. Children at Davis will not only get a first-class education but also get to interact with therapy dogs that make frequent visits to the school. From there students will move to Bryant Middle School, which also boasts an A- rating on Niche. The HEAT, or Hornet Engineering and Technology, track provides students with hands-on experience in engineering and designing robotics. Finally, Bryant High School holds an A- rating and boasts high ratings in clubs, activities and college prep. Bryant High fields a jazz band, color guard and full marching band that has won multiple competitions across the state in recent years.
