Mid-century homes with attractive price points
The streets of Warwick are lined with ranch-style homes, split levels and the occasional Colonial Revival, and most were built between the 1940s and 1960s. Homes maintain their mid-century character, but many have been updated with quartz countertops, LVP flooring and renovated bathrooms in recent years. Spacious lots, some reaching over half an acre, feature fenced-in back yards and mature trees. “Some of the homes are undervalued here, especially for their proximity to the city,” says Joe Cafarella, a lifelong Richmond resident and Realtor at River Fox Realty. “You can get more for your money in Warwick than in many surrounding areas.” Houses start in the low $200,000s and reach the mid-$300,000s. With a median price of roughly $280,000, the neighborhood tends to be more affordable compared to other Southside communities like Worthington and Piney Knolls, which have medians of $290,0000 and $300,000, respectively.
