Affordability and convenience near downtown Tyler
Connally Heights is a small residential community that offers an enticing combination of convenience and affordability in Tyler. Located east of Route 323 (or “Loop 323” as locals call it), residents are close to everything in the city and their homes tend to be less expensive than those in nearby neighborhoods like Azalea District and Brick Streets District. “It’s a great area to invest or buy a home in because of its location,” says Annie Dwyer, a real estate broker with Brooklyn Rose Realty Group and a Tyler resident.
Nestled among the mature trees jus south of Downtown Tyler is the Connally Heights neighborhood.

A mix of fixer-uppers and totally renovated homes
The homes in Connally Heights are a mix of ranch-style and Minimal Traditional builds from the 1940s and 1950s, with two or three bedrooms. Many are in need of complete renovations and are priced between $90,000 and $130,000. Renovated homes range from $170,000 to $230,000. "Many of the buyers right now are investors renovating and then selling to first-time home buyers or buyers looking for something affordable," Dwyer says. Lot sizes are a mix, too; some homes have petite front and backyards, while others have large yards dotted with tall trees and shrubs.
