Mature trees and charming colonial architecture
The curving streets of Walnut Hills are lined with mature trees. “There are many different housing styles and sizes,” McNulty says. “You could have a little bungalow, or you could have a 5,000 or 6,000-square-foot house. A lot of these homes are going to be older — built in the 30s, 40s and 50s.” These houses are typically set back on wooded lots that range from a quarter-acre to an acre. Most homes have long driveways that parallel the spacious, leafy front lawns. The abundance of trees and neat landscaping provide a great sense of privacy and seclusion to these properties. In Walnut Hills, a three-bedroom, three-bathroom brick transitional-style home on a half-acre lot costs around $450,000 while a four-bedroom, four-bathroom colonial on an acre of land costs around $800,000. According to McNulty, the housing market is still very good in this area. “If the house is good, it sells,” she says.
