Woodsy self-sufficient suburbia

Along a bend in the Stillwater River, Northridge Estates is a woodsy neighborhood known for its well-maintained homes and abundant green spaces. Much of the area is forested, with residential pockets and commercial buildings carving space between large clusters of trees. New construction blends with the neighborhood’s post-World War II homes, and businesses boom along the interstate just outside the community. Residents have quick access to restaurants, shops and parks, and neighborhood kids attend Northridge Local School District.

Late 20th-century builds getting makeovers

The real estate market in Northridge Estates is competitive due to a persistent lack of inventory. “As high as the seller’s market has been, flipping is big anywhere someone can get a place for a good price, like here," says Kent Summers, a Realtor at Summers Realty who’s sold in the area before. "My investors took up properties that were falling apart and really fixed them up." Prices typically range between $110,000 and $280,000, with a few homes reaching as high as $415,000. Sidewalks wind past driveways and trim grass lawns, and most houses were built during the 1950s to 1960s, so many ranch-style and split-level homes from that era remain. New construction has also entered the landscape. Some homes have entirely replaced older properties, while others are clustered into separate subdivisions. Stillwater Crossing, a newer subdivision near the neighborhood’s center, has contemporary and New Traditional homes built in the early 2000s. The homes have neutral color palettes and simple designs priced between $200,000 and $280,000. This cul-de-sac community is a secluded slice of suburbia among the trees.

Dogs and discoveries

Northridge Estates is within a few miles of many parks. Northridge Community Park is connected to the Northridge Local School District but is open to the public. Across the street, The Rat Skatepark lets skaters practice trick shots. Sinclair Park and Shiloh Park are west of the Stillwater River, offering playgrounds, picnic shelters and sports courts. A recreational trail runs parallel to the river, leading to Wegerzyn Gardens MetroPark. Visitors come to this 88-acre botanical garden to marvel at carefully curated formal gardens and explore native habitats, like a swamp forest full of Fairy Shrimp. The Children’s Discovery Garden lets kids experience the world through whimsically themed gardens, and the park’s community garden gives residents a spot to grow herbs, fruits and vegetables year-round. Four miles south, near the confluence of the Stillwater and Great Miami rivers, Deeds Point Dog Park lets pets run off-leash. Next door, the Boonshoft Museum of Discovery makes science and archaeology accessible to all ages with a planetarium, live animals and fossils.

Browsing the flea at Dixie Twin Drive-In

Though primarily residential, Northridge Estates is home to a small business park. There are also several commercial districts in neighboring Northridge. Marion’s Piazza is a long-running, counter-serve chain serving thin-crust pizzas, pasta and sandwiches, while Maggie’s Place is the spot for a round of pool. Nanyea Restaurant Coffee House & Bar serves up international eats, and next door, Dixie Twin Drive-In is a beloved favorite for evening flicks and a seasonal flea market. Even more options are just north of the neighborhood. “Benchwood Road and Miller Lane are just exploding restaurant areas,” says Summers. Among nationally recognized eateries like LongHorn Steakhouse and Olive Garden are more local spots like Winans Coffee & Chocolate, a small and inviting café. Walmart, Aldi and Sam’s Club are the go-to for groceries. Within 2 miles is Hollywood Gaming at Dayton Raceway and Scene 75, a family-friendly entertainment venue with mini golf, go-karts, laser tag and bowling.

Interstate 75 just around the corner

Needmore Road and North Dixie Drive are the main thoroughfares for the area, offering passage over the Stillwater River and into downtown Dayton 7 miles away. Lined with bus stops, these roads can get busy throughout the day, contributing traffic and excess noise to the area. Interstate 75 is within 2 miles of the community. “Having I-75 nearby is great because that’s what’s drawing all the restaurants to the area, but it’s not so close that it causes a lot of traffic,” says Summers. I-75 crosses all the way through Dayton and connects to Dayton International Airport in about 6 miles.
