You're basically in the heart of downtown, where your grocery, coffee, and dinner are all within steps—literally. The Pine Grove sits right next door, and there are over a hundred parks within a mile, so green space isn't something you hunt for. Transit is equally close, which matters when you're thinking about getting around without always being behind the wheel. The walk score reflects what's actually happening here: errands are doable on foot, dining options are everywhere (we're talking nearly three hundred restaurants within a mile), and you've got real transit access. It's the kind of density where you notice the neighborhood's bones—original hardwood floors, Victorian trim work, sturdy old brick—because they're everywhere you look, mixed in with the actual street life happening around you.

Estimates use a 6.55% 30-year fixed rate (current Freddie Mac average), an aggressive ~45% housing-to-income ratio (roughly what FHA underwriting can allow for a buyer with no other monthly debts — your number depends on your debts and credit), this area's median sale price, plus estimated insurance and PMI below 20% down. Not a commitment to lend, and not an APR — your actual rate and payment will vary.
