Tucked away in northwestern Oklahoma City, Harvest Hills offers quiet suburban appeal with commuting convenience. About 16 miles from downtown, the neighborhood provides proximity to the Northwest Expressway, plus outdoor recreation and retail shopping. “It’s a classic ’80s neighborhood with a great potential for upward growth,” says Jim Miller, a Realtor with Keller Williams Realty Elite. The neighborhood was established in the late 1970s into the 80s and has kept its classic charm throughout the years. “It has houses you can move in to and make your own.”
A home in the hills
“It’s popular for its cul-de-sacs and greenbelts,” says Becky Ivins, a broker with Movers Real Estate. “And it’s pretty well established. Once you move in, you tend to stay long-term.” Harvest Hills’ suburban streets are clustered with single-family homes that vary in age and size. Some properties were built in the early 1970s and 80s, but there are newer properties in the neighborhood as well. Houses have recently sold between $240,000 for one-story brick homes and the mid-300s for four-bedroom renovated properties.
Harvest Hills Park and relaxing on Lake Hefner
Harvest Hills residents can meet new neighbors or catch up with old friends at community events held by the neighborhood HOA. Neighbors bring cold drinks and a few chairs to relax in to Harvest Hills Park to chat with friends at the annual picnic, and all neighborhood kids gather at the park for the Easter Egg Hunt. Between the colorful climbing structures, curly slides and swings at the playground and the loch-ness-themed water features at the spray ground, there are tons of opportunities for the neighborhood’s littlest residents to burn off some energy at Harvest Hills Park. For sporty residents of all ages, there’s also a baseball field and basketball hoop. Locals from all over OKC head to Lake Hefner to rent kayaks and spend the day on the water. There’s also nearly 10 miles of trails for a scenic stroll or bike ride around the lake.
Putnam City Schools
When the bell echoes over the park, signaling the end of playtime, many students attend Harvest Hills Elementary School. Part of the small Putnam City Schools system, Harvest Hills Elementary boasts an overall B-plus grade from Niche for its stellar academics, teachers and diversity. It’s also a certified Lighthouse School, a designation awarded by FranklinCovey Education to schools championing leadership development in their students, staff and administration. After Harvest Hills, students will likely attend Hefner Middle School and Putnam City North High School, which have B-minus and B grades on Niche.
Cruising on the Northwest Expressway
The Northwest Expressway is one of the main arteries to get around the northwestern side of OKC and connects to Interstate 40 to get to downtown Oklahoma City, set about 15 miles away. “This close to the expressway, you’re minutes away from basically everything,” says Ivins. Residents tend to drive to get around, but there are public transportation stops along the expressway.
Retail shopping and dining on the expressway
Many of the retail shopping and dining options are along the Northwest Expressway. Residents can head to the Silver Springs Pointe shopping center, which contains a Walmart and Sam’s Club, for daily essentials. Cajun Corner gives locals a taste of the bayou, offering classics like gumbo and blackened salmon among other flavorful options. Cal’s ships their ingredients straight from Chicago, offering authentic Italian Beef, Chicago-style dogs and more.
