Classic homes set on modest lots

Framed by shaded sidewalks and generous front lawns, the traditional Colonial Revival, split-level and Tudor-style homes of Brush Hill offer a classic look to the suburban enclave. “Brush Hill neighborhoods are well-maintained and beautifully landscaped,” Johanneson says. Four-bedroom colonial styles are the most common among single-family homes, and renovated farmhouses dot the streets as well. Two-bedroom, one-bathroom condos round out the housing stock in Brush Hill, often with assigned parking spaces and HOA fees of $283 a month. Single-family homes typically list between $575,000 to $675,000, but prices for real estate here may range between $130,000 and $850,000. According to the CAP Index, Brush Hill receives a crime score of 4 out of 10, which is comparable to the US national average.
