Multiple single-family home styles to pick from

Single-family home architecture includes cottages, ranch styles, split levels, Craftsmans and New Traditionals. Townhomes and condos are also available. “It's been around for a while, so there are some older homes there, and it has a suburban feel. says Jessica Sinski, a Realtor at Carolina Residential Group with almost a decade of experience. “I know that there have been investors that have gone in and remodeled some of the homes.”

Townhome and condo prices range from the low $100,000s to the low-$200,000s. Single-family homes range from the mid-$100,000s to the mid-$400,000s. Prices in Hidden Valley are lower than in some of the surrounding communities, such as Newell South, Sugar Creek and Mineral Springs. Townhome and condo units are overseen by HOAs. The Hidden Valley Community Association hosts events and volunteer opportunities and provides resources to residents.

Homes are typically on gridded streets or cul-de-sacs, and usually have smaller-than-average lots. Oak trees normally line the wide streets. Multi-family complexes are at the edges of the community.
