Traditional brick ranch-style, Tudor-inspired and Spanish revival homes

Bunker features a mix of older and newer homes in various styles. There are traditional brick ranch-style houses, but there are also homes with Tudor-inspired features like half-timbered facades and Spanish Revival homes with red tile roofs. “Homes in this neighborhood usually have beautiful mature trees and sidewalks—and you have space between homes,” Bologna says. “The homes were typically built in the 70s, but many have been remodeled and updated, and yet you still get a nice sized backyard to barbecue and entertain.” Most single-family homes in the neighborhood have sold for between $350,000 to $850,000, with a few spacious homes having gone for over $1 million. Condominiums and townhouses are also available in Bunker and have sold for between $190,000 and $290,000. "Bunker stands out with its competitive home prices, offering more value compared to nearby areas," Lankri says.
