Suburban living in Moline
With midcentury homes on leafy, residential streets, Greater Homewood residents enjoy a comfortable suburban lifestyle just a short drive to parks, shopping plazas and public schools. Though most entertainment can be found outside the neighborhood, The Playcrafters Barn Theatre, a local playhouse with seasonal shows, lies at the center of Greater Homewood. “This is a classic, middle-class American neighborhood. A lot of people around here work for John Deere, which has its headquarters in Moline,” says Realtor Andria Henning of Exp Realty, who grew up in Moline and has five years of real estate experience in the city.
Midcentury homes on oak-lined streets
“It’s an older, midcentury neighborhood with tons of giant oak trees, as well as some homes that back up to woods and meadows,” says Henning. Mature trees provide a cover of shade over the community’s quiet streets and sidewalks, while some backyards extend out into the wooded hillsides. Lot sizes typically range from one-quarter to half an acre, providing plenty of room for landscaping, gardening and backyard barbeques. Home styles consist of split-levels, Colonial Revivals and low-flung ranch-style homes. Built mainly in the '70s and '80s, houses here have been maintained through thoughtful upgrades that modernize while retaining the home's original charm. Home prices range from around $150,000 to $350,000 on average. For those looking for something with less upkeep, apartment rentals are available at Pine Ridge Apartments, situated along the western edge of the community.
