Colonial Revival, midcentury modern, ranch-style and split-level homes
Step into the woods and find the winding roads and cul-de-sacs containing some of the most elegant styles in the area. “The neighborhood has beautiful homes, mostly built in the 50s and 60s, but new construction keeps popping up in the area. Every option there is a great one, and you can truly feel like you’re part of a community,” Mason says. Colonial Revival and midcentury modern designs sit under thick tree canopies, surrounding roomy properties with leafy backdrops accentuated by elaborate front lawns displaying manicured shrubs and eye-popping flowers. Split-level builds and sprawling ranches make the most out of larger-than-average plot sizes, mostly ranging from half an acre to more than 1 acre, giving homes seclusion and room to breathe. Prices range from $500,000 for a three-bedroom build with minimal stylings to $2 million for modern construction with elegant designs and more than an acre of land.

Nature spots, pocket parks and the Oregon Zoo.
You’ll only be about 5 miles down US Highway 26 from downtown’s cultural center, but when you live in Bridlemile you’re much closer to the city’s incredible nature spots. Council Crest Park sits atop the hills to the east, giving you panoramic views of the city and mountain range as you travel along the hiking paths that stretch for miles into the Oregon wilderness. Stop along Highway 26 and pay a visit to the Oregon Zoo, one of the most visited attractions in the Pacific Northwest, where you can explore 64 acres of forest filled with many animals and chances to learn about the region’s wonderful wildlife. Pocket parks hide under the thick trees throughout the neighborhood, and the woods all around will make your backyard feel like a private green space all to yourself.

Grocery stores and a variety of eateries along state Route 10
