Once used for bottling, the building has been revitalized into an updated retail center anchored by the Mellow Mushroom, a pizzeria also known for its craft teer and calzone.

Original midcentury charm

Narrow tree-lined streets reveal older, mostly midcentury homes comprising bungalow, ranch-style and American foursquare architecture. "Buyers have been very mindful when renovating a house to maintain many of its original features, so the neighborhood keeps its charm," Mourad says. Prices range between $60,000 and $228,000. Older turn-of-the-20th-century homes can also be found. Most properties measure around 1/8 acre, suitable for a small garden, and homes have garages and/or carports.
