Colonial and Cape Cod homes on smaller suburban lots
The neighborhood has a suburban feel due to homes being strung together closely on its residential streets. “Lots have a smaller dimension on average, closer to a quarter to half an acre,” Takacs says. Architecture reflects the New England community; colonial-style and Cape Cod homes are most common, with a few minimalistic ranch and raised ranch styles peppered in. Price tags for single-family homes typically start at around $400,000. As square footage increases, so do prices, with homes over 2,500 square feet starting in the $600,000s. The largest homes can reach about $650,000, and some outliers include more expansive, luxury builds fetching up to $1 million.
West Trumbull homes often feature detached garages and spacious driveways.
