A mix of housing options
Homes in Lanyon are lined along narrow residential streets with alleyway access and are surrounded by mature trees. “A nice thing about the neighborhood is that it’s got some mixed demographics. A majority of the homes are single-family, but you’ll see some multi-family options like condos too,” Hansard says. Brick ranch-style homes built in the 1970s are common, alongside contemporary single-story homes with brightly colored exteriors. These houses span 1,450 to 4,200 square feet and range from $475,000 to $725,000. Additionally, a handful of ranch-style homes have been converted into duplexes that go for similar prices for both units. Craftsman homes built in the 1980s to 1990s with multiple front gables and pointed roofs are also priced between $500,000 and $650,000. Multi-story townhouses and traditional condos span 900 to 1,200 square feet and cost $275,000 to $380,000.
