Lane & Walsh'S East Leonard Heights Sub
Solid value in a growing area
Median $320K·Walkability 5.8/10·Schools 4.7/10
You'll wake up, grab coffee about five minutes away, and be downtown in less than nine minutes—that's the rhythm out here in the Northeast. The neighborhood spreads across 80 acres of single-family homes mostly built in the 1940s and '60s, sitting on quarter-acre lots with room to breathe, hardwood floors, and the kind of detailing that makes older construction feel solid. Ball Perkins Park is a short walk if you want trails through old-growth trees where you might spot deer or wild turkeys, and there are 84 restaurants and multiple grocery stores within a mile. The area's got craft breweries, contemporary restaurants, and enough local character that you don't feel like you're in a subdivision—you're in a real neighborhood with actual bones. Lighthouse Academy serves the area, and you're close enough to Gerald R. Ford airport (about 20 minutes) that weekend trips don't require extra planning.
