Homes create a cohesive landscape

The neighborhood is made up almost exclusively of single-story bungalow- and ranch-style homes. “They’re basically about average size, about three-bedroom, two bath,” says Snow, who has lived in the area for almost 50 years. “And they’re well built, built in a really good time period. And they offer attractively sized lots.” Floor plans stretch an average of about 1,500 square feet, and lots here are often somewhere around one-fifth of an acre. Price tags in Roosevelt Estates start in the mid-$200,000s and usually top out in the $500,000s.
