Older brick ranches and new Craftsman-style homes
Baverman says many older houses have been torn down over the last 15 years and replaced with larger homes. “It’s really interesting to drive down the street and see all the different styles of homes,” she says. The neighborhood still has some 1950s ranch-style homes that sell for between $550,000 and $750,000. Newer construction includes contemporary and Craftsman styles and sells for between $1.3 and $2.5 million. Many of the newer properties also have pools, Baverman says.
