Desirable Orem neighborhood for families
Suburban living encapsulated by outdoor adventures and easy access to highways makes Northridge a neighborhood to desire. Backed by excellent schools and large homes with space to raise families, Northridge paints a perfect picture of Orem’s moniker as “Family City USA.” The neighborhood is less than a mile away from Timpanogos High School, a key driver for families, and close to Canyon Park Tech Center’s 85-acre campus, a suburban tech hub where Word Perfect was developed. “All the schools in Orem are good, but Timp is definitely known as the best,” says Emerie Swallow, Listing Manager of Summit Realty Inc. “Parents will move just so their kids can go there; it’s pretty bougie.” The neighborhood is lined with winding streets in view of Mount Timpanogos with mostly newer builds.

Larger lots nestled against the mountains
Houses range in price beginning from the low $500,000s to $1.5 million. Older homes on the lower end start at State Street and get newer and more expensive as you move toward the foothills of Mount Timpanogos. Brick and siding are popular front-face styles despite homes’ age and price. Ramblers dating back to the mid-1900s cost between $500,000 and $700,000; five bedrooms and three bathrooms are spread over 3,700 square feet, though most houses in this range stick to 2,500. Updates like hardwood floors, new carpet and stainless-steel kitchen appliances are standard, but buyers are known to invest in additional renovations. Most families live in homes within the $700,000 to $1.5 million range. Some date back to the late 1990s, but most were built in the early 2000s and have been updated recently. Houses up to 4,500 square feet sit on at least a quarter acre with dedicated space for lavish landscape designs. You can find up to seven bedrooms, though four is most common. Wide cement driveways lead to garages where three vehicles and your RV can take shelter from winter weather. Mansions cover up to 6,000 square feet over half an acre and are nestled against the mountain. These homes’ spaces are dedicated to open-concept designs with gourmet kitchens and spacious living rooms. Take in your neighborhood’s most beautiful views while you cozy up on the couch; long, wide windows peer down the valley.

Alpine School District
In addition to Timpanogos High, rated an A on Niche.com, students attend Northridge Elementary School and Canyon View Junior High School, both rated a B. Students near Northridge Elementary can enjoy morning walks to school. Proficiency growth in math, language arts and science was 10 percent higher in 2022 compared to similar schools in the Alpine District and nearly 20 percent higher than schools statewide. A designated STEM lab allows students to explore interests at an early age. Timpanogos High School boasts a 95 percent graduation rate and is ranked within the top six percent of high schools nationwide, but academics only accounts for half of the school’s prestigious reputation. The annual Spirit Bowl displays student comradery at its finest. Each spring, students separate by class in the gym and go head-to-head in sports, relay and dance competitions to prove which grade has the most Timberwolf spirit.
