A sought-after Montgomery community

Located about 4 miles from downtown, McGehee Estates is an older, established neighborhood centrally located in Montgomery. "It's right smack dab in the middle," says Towannah Smith, an associate broker with Residential Movement Real Estate who has over 20 years of experience. "You'll find more older and retired people who have had their homes for years." Great McGehee Estates sits close to major thoroughfares with multiple shopping and dining options, as well as the Montgomery Country Club.

Classic American architecture

Houses in Great McGehee Estates are usually mid-century homes with classic architecture like Cape Cods, Colonial Revivals and ranch-styles. "Many of the homes are older, but they are highly desirable because of the location," Smith says. The more modest and older dwellings in the area usually cost between $170,000 and $340,000, while the larger, more expansive properties typically range from $350,000 to $575,000. There are a few estate houses measuring more than 5,000 square feet; those will cost over a million dollars. Bushy oak trees taller than the homes fill the area, while sidewalks line most roadways. Many houses include a driveway or garage, but street parking also is available.
