Northridge Homes for Sale

Northridge, a neighborhood in northwestern Milwaukee, is characterized by its mix of residential areas, natural spaces and the remnants of its once-thriving shopping mall. The Northridge Mall, now largely vacant, was a major attraction in the 1970s but closed in 2003. Despite this, the surrounding residential subdivisions have continued to expand, with approximately 2,300 residents residing in the area. The neighborhood features a variety of home styles, including Colonial, split-level, Tudor, Craftsman and ranch-style homes, with some newer Colonials built in the early 2000s. Townhouse-style duplexes and apartment buildings are also common. Kohl Park, in the northern part of Northridge, features a huge community garden and wooded walking trails. The nearby Mequon Nature Preserve offers 6 miles of trails, wetlands, prairies and an observation tower. Dining options include local chains like JJ Fish and Chicken, franchises like Denny's and independent restaurants such as Thai Bangkok. Family Table, a longstanding American diner, is less than 1 mile east. The neighborhood has access to big-box retailers and is within a short drive of the Village of Brown Deer. U.S. Route 41 heads west towards Interstate 41 and east towards Interstate 43 and Lake Michigan. Commuters can reach downtown Milwaukee in 20 to 25 minutes, and sus stops are within the neighborhood.
