Restorations, new builds and beautification in Tremont Park
Tremont Park's residential streets span a narrow two blocks wide and about a half-mile long. The small neighborhood's modest ranch and bungalow designs date from the 80s through the present day and sit side-by-side on midsize grassy lots. Though many Tremont homes are new or restored, the neighborhood dates to the early 1900s, with few era-specific homes remaining. There is also a manufactured home community on the east side of town. Prices range from $150,000 to $275,000, which is much lower than the city average. The market fluctuates from home to home here. Newer and remodeled residences go faster than those that may need a little TLC. "Properties sell anywhere between 30 to 90 days," Barksdale says.
