What buyers can expect to pay for midcentury homes and condos
Winding residential roads and cul-de-sacs reveal a wide range of Spanish Revival, contemporary and ranch-style homes from the 1960s through the 1990s. Newer homes built in the early 2000s and 2020s are also available. Prices vary between $1 million and $2.5 million. When it comes to condo and townhouse communities in the neighborhood, prices are much lower, ranging from the upper $500,000s to the low $800,000s. This excludes monthly HOA fees, which are common.
Some ranch-style homes have lushly landscaped front yards.
Newer homes lean more contemporary in their architecture.

Neighborhood parks offer plenty to do outdoors
Green space defines the Parkview neighborhood. "It's great for people who want to live right across the street from a park," says Realtor Joyce Lavrar with Compass. Several neighborhood parks, like Meadows Park, offer spacious fields and picnic areas. Adjacent to the neighborhood, cyclists, hikers and even horseback riders explore the trails throughout Martial Cottle Park. The park is also a hub for picnicking and community gardening. For weekend camping trips, the Santa Cruz and Sierra Nevada Mountain ranges border either side of the city. "The surrounding mountains and wilderness areas are beautiful and definitely worth visiting," says Realtor Christopher Ward with Legacy Real Estate & Associates.
Many neighborhood parks have wide open fields and shady spots to relax in.
