Comstock Park: epicenter of neighborhood
Comstock, 3 miles from Downtown Spokane, is known for the historic Comstock Park. “Comstock Park is the epicenter of the area,” says Mike Bass, managing broker with Century 21 Beutler & Associates and resident. “Homes are placed within walking distance of parks and recreation.” The park is named after one of Spokane’s first mayors and was designed by Harold T. Abbott, a landscape architect and the superintendent of parks in the 1940s. Abbott oversaw the creation of several green spaces, including the nearby rose gardens in Manito Park, another popular spot within the area. Events and outdoor activities also occur within the park, making it a neighborhood gathering place. According to the CAP Index crime tracking database, the crime score is 2 out of 10, with 1 indicating the lowest crime. The national average is 4.

“There are a variety of homes available to buy in the Comstock area,” says Bass. “A full gambit of buyer options.” Homes in the area are a mixture of historic and new builds. Homes are in the bungalow, minimal traditional, contemporary and Craftsman styles. Townhouses and condos are also present in the area. Home prices depend on sizing and style. Large, historic, newly built or renovated homes go for $900,000 to $1.3 million. Smaller homes in the bungalow and minimal traditional styles cost $300,000 to $575,000.
