Ranch-style and midcentury modern homes at relatively low prices
The neighborhood is primarily filled with ranch-style homes, many of which were built in the 1960s or earlier. They can range from $200,000 to $285,000. A handful of midcentury modern-influenced homes can be found along Collier Drive. These houses can go between $330,000 and $340,000. Most small neighborhood roads lack sidewalks, but main thoroughfares like Fairburn Road Northwest do have them. Tall trees line the streets. Myra Killings, a broker with Joseph Property Advisors, says new developments close to the neighborhood, like the $450 million mixed-use redevelopment of The Mall West End, could cause prices to rise in the near future. That development is just over 5 miles from Fairburn Heights. “Right now, it's still attractive for the bargain buyer,” Killings says. “When these developments are done, they’ll gain equity in their homes.” The neighborhood has a CAP Index Crime Score of 5 out of 10, which is slightly higher than the national average of 4 and driven by elevated violent crime scores.
