Solid value in a growing area
Median $165K·Schools 5.0/10
When you roll down the main street here, you're surrounded by Victorian-era brick and stone homes with original hardwood floors, pocket doors, and the kind of architectural bones that make you pause—shade trees and wide corner lots that speak to a different pace of building. The neighborhood has a real walkable spine: shops and restaurants are practically on your doorstep, and there's a park just a two-minute stroll away. A lot of the homes here are either lovingly maintained or waiting for someone with vision to restore them to their original character—slate fireplaces, stained glass, 10-foot ceilings, the whole thing. You're looking at genuine period homes, not reproductions, which means quirks and charm in equal measure. If you want to be out of the car and on foot, this is it; if you're seeking deeper woods or lakefront, Woodbeck Lake sits about a mile and a half away. It's the kind of place where you can imagine actually knowing the street, actually using the front porch.
