Homes on large lots
In the residential areas, homebuyers can find a mix of Craftsman and split-level styles. “The homes in Fairview are a mix of older and new homes. Some have nice large lots with a couple acres for livestock," says Francesca Davila, a local and Realtor with Evolve Real Estate. Homes in the area tend to remain on the market for a while, selling after an average of 25 days. Prices begin around $650,000 on the lower end for a home with three bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths. On the higher end, homes can cost around $1.7 million for more spacious properties with four bedrooms and extra baths. These are also the residences that are more likely to come with an attractive bonus feature. “There’s amazing bay views at the top,” Davila says.
