Midcentury brick ranch homes
The heart of Sewell is the gridded residential streets off Chantilly Drive and Lenora Avenue. Homes here are low-slung brick ranchers, usually dating back to the mid-1900s. There are wide driveways and backyard pools, and although most streets don’t have sidewalks, the roads are quiet enough to be easily walkable. Prices here range from $300,000 to $500,000, depending on the recency of renovations. There are a few luxury properties on the other side of the elementary school. Some are located along the nationally registered historic Indian House Road, which contains Pueblo homes built in the 1920s; others are modern homes built in the 2000s. These properties are often gated and go for price points from $600,000 to $2 million.
