Historic brick streets near Downtown Tyler
The name Brick Streets District may be a bit on the nose, but the self-descriptive moniker does not take away from the historic neighborhood’s charm. Dating to the 1800s, once home to some of Tyler’s wealthiest families, this brick-street community continues to attract homebuyers thanks partly to an array of amenities, including nearby parks, cafes and a recently re-energized downtown. “The district is original to when Tyler was built,” says Myriah Boles, local Realtor with the Standard Realty Group. “It really has a lot of character because everything is very unique, and the homes are not cookie cutter.”

Timeless houses with mature trees overhead
An eclectic mix of historic homes line the neighborhood’s brick streets. Styles range from Tudor revivals with gable pitched roofs to cozy Craftsman-style homes with large front lawns. Renovated cottages can also be found scattered throughout. Many residences were built in the late 1800s, featuring construction styles that many homebuyers find attractive. “The charm of these historic homes is that they just aren’t being made the same now,” says Melanie Watson, a local realtor with National Agent Network. “It’s a piece of history they can own.” The houses and streets aren’t the only thing that’s timeless, as mature trees provide ample shade to nearly every lot. Prices range from $200,000 to $400,000, while larger, remodeled estates can top $600,000.
