Historic homes make up much of the local housing stock

Most homes date to the early 1900s, meaning the streets are lined with traditional two-story homes with classic detailing. Colonial-style builds are the most common, along with Victorian and Tudor-style houses. The median sale price is in the high $200,000s, and prices generally range from around $80,000 to the upper $200,000s. This makes Triangle North generally less expensive than Halyard Park, but more than North Division, Midtown or Harambee. The area also has some multi-family properties, with duplexes and small multi-unit buildings throughout.
