Central location in East Dayton
Situated in East Dayton, Burkhardt represents one of the older neighborhoods in the area. Classic homes in a lower-than-average price range and a convenient central location make it a popular neighborhood among first-time homeowners and morning commuters. Though still recovering from hardships that have been present since the area's loss of industrial jobs, city-led initiatives have begun the process of eliminating abandoned and derelict homes, while others have been renovated and updated by locals and new residents. As time goes on, Burkhardt has become more and more attractive to investors and homeowners who love a project.
Victorian homes in need of some TLC
The community has a "street-to-street" aesthetic found in many of Dayton's impoverished neighborhoods: one street can contain beautifully restored historic homes, while the very next one is filled with derelict structures in need of restoration or demolition. Well-worn sidewalks connect most of the area, providing a good level of walkability. The age of the neighborhood means that driveways aren't common, and lawns of any significant size are even less so. Almost entirely developed in the early 1900s, the most popular house styles in the area are Victorian, Craftsman, American Foursquare and the occasional bungalow. Historic homes badly in need of restoration can run between $20,000 and $75,000, while those that have seen restoration fall between $80,000 and $130,000, a significant difference from the neighboring Historic Inner East neighborhood, which has houses that top out in the mid-$300,000s.
Although some homes need love and repair, Burkhardt is an affordable place to live.
While driving down streets in Burkhardt, you can find beautiful and large Victorian homes.
