West Central is an older Spokane suburb with trendy new developments
West Central has become one of Spokane's trendiest neighborhoods, thanks to the building of Kendall Yards. As this vibrant mixed-use shopping district sprang up along the Spokane River, so did blocks of new construction homes, apartments and updated recreation areas. It’s a true blend of a historic Spokane suburb and a contemporary commercial and event hub, offering a range of amenities, housing types and price ranges for buyers with different lifestyles. Whether you’re looking for a luxury townhouse on the water or a cozy Craftsman bungalow, you can enjoy this walkable neighborhood that’s a short walk, bike ride or drive from Downtown Spokane.
A range of prices, historic homes and new builds near Kendall Yards
“Around Kendall Yards, it’s all the thriving new homes. West Central itself has a mix of homes and styles,” says Jonathan Bich, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker Tomlinson North, who’s served Spokane and the surrounding area for 24 years. “The Victorians are probably my favorite, but there are lots of Craftsman bungalows and very simple homes from the old railyard workers, too.”
Fixer-uppers can go in the $100,000s, but move-in-ready historic homes typically sell from the lower $200,000s to the lower $600,000s. Townhouses and detached homes built in the Kendall Yards area since the 2010s usually sell from the upper $400,000s to the upper $800,000s. Luxury new homes and large estates on the Spokane River can go for over $1 million. West Central has a median single-family home price in the lower $300,000s. That’s higher than nearby Emerson Garfield and downtown Spokane, but lower than Peaceful Valley and Browne’s Addition.
