Old Orchard East Estates No. 2

Old Orchard East Estates No. 2 looks like a quiet subdivision on the surface—six acres of modest lots, homes clustered around $390K—but it sits in the Northeast part of town where that price tag buys you actual breathing room: a third of an acre, space for a real yard, and a 12-minute drive to downtown without the downtown price. The subdivision itself is straightforward 1940s–60s residential stock, the kind of neighborhood where trees outnumber fences and Ball Perkins Park's old-growth groves and wildlife corridors are just over a mile away. Reeds Lake is 1.9 miles away, and a handful of grocery stores and a coffee shop are within walking distance or a short drive—the kind of access that makes a modest footprint feel less constraining. Forest Hills Public Schools serves the area, and the Northeast's growing roster of breweries and restaurants means you're not far from actual dining when you're tired of your own kitchen.
