Former timber mill turned residential subdivision

Parts of Croman Mill were left vacant for decades, after the synonymous timber mill that operated here closed in the 1990s. But in the early 2000s, the city of Ashland gave it another look, and now it’s the future site of a mixed-use, walkable community. Homes and businesses already exist here, so with the Croman Mill project in place, this area will become the next frontier of Ashland's urban expansion. It borders Interstate 5, a major thoroughfare that extends the length of the West Coast, and is near Route 99, a highway linking it to downtown Ashland also known as Siskiyou Boulevard. This neighborhood is also close to some of southern Oregon’s most popular wineries.: “I think there are about five wineries in the area alone,” says Robynne Whitaker, a local Realtor with the NW Real Estate Team at Pattie Millen Group. “Overall, the whole of Rogue Valley has just exploded, and now there are hundreds of vineyards.”

Contemporary townhomes and single-family homes

North of Ashland Street are multiple townhouse communities, mostly built in the late 1990s and the early 2000s. “The town slowed down development in the 60s, 70s and 80s, so you won’t find many dated subdivisions,” Whitaker says. These contemporary and New Traditional townhomes can range from $250,000 to $500,000, and most of them include paved driveways and attached garages. Wingspread Park, an all-ages manufactured homes community, has properties that cost between $100,000 and $250,000. In the southern end of Croman Mill along Tolman Creek Road, prospective homebuyers can find bungalows, Craftsman and ranch-style single-family homes on tree-lined streets; most homes range between $500,000 and $800,000. Future Croman Mill communities are expected to feature a mix of luxury apartments, townhomes and single-family homes in a series of planned subdivisions.
