Ranch-style homes with two-car garages and attics are commonly found
The neighborhood has many ranch-style homes built in the 1970s. These homes can list between $350,000 and $475,000. Homes along Buckwood Drive tend to be more expensive. Diana Torres-McCann, a Realtor with Vision Realty, says area houses often come with two-car garages and many have attics, which is getting more difficult to find in El Paso. Front lawns are uncommon, though residents usually have trees or small bushes in their yards. Sidewalks wind throughout the community, allowing for easy walking to parks, schools and restaurants. “It’s becoming more family-focused,” says Tracie Musshorn, a Realtor with Majestic Realty. “It used to be an older population. My grandmother lived around here. But now when people sell, it is usually a family that moves into the neighborhood.”
