Discovering Corvallis, a golden city full of innovation
Seeking the legends of gold and riches in the West, Joseph Avery stumbled upon a different kind of treasure – Corvallis, Oregon, a mecca of innovation. With noteworthy public schools and 11 city parks, Northwest Corvallis is the city's most populated neighborhood just 2 miles from downtown. Less than 200 years after its founding, the Graand Kinetic Challenge takes Corvallis by storm as Oregon State University students and residents design sculptures to race through town using only human-generated momentum. Contraptions, like a spinning cupcake or a wooden ship with a dragon figurehead, skate furiously through town on bicycle wheels. "Corvallis is really a lovely little college town," says Stephanie Spann, a Corvallis native and Real Estate Broker at Cadwell Realty Group-Corvallis. "Between all these subdivisions, cul-de-sacs and streets is mandatory green space, which keeps it suburban and gives it more of a forested woodsy feel. People always use the parks and trails, and the whole city has bike lanes."
Northwest Corvallis, OR has a variety of living options, mostly in the $700,000 range.

Historic area with narrow cul-de-sacs in the hills
The College Hill West historic district bleeds into Northwest Corvallis, encompassing early 20th-century colonial manors and cottages. As the neighborhood becomes more suburban heading north, Circle Boulevard breaks off into narrow cul-de-sacs in the hills with ranch-style homes and split-levels off the main road. New Traditional homes have modern features like three-car attached garages and covered patios in the Ponderosa Ridge neighborhood, where trails connect to some of the city's most significant parks outside of town. Home prices range from $350,000 to $850,000, and some four-bedroom homes in the Timberhill subdivision reach over $1 million. A three-bedroom, ranch-style or split-level home may be listed between $600,000 and $700,000, while a two-story midcentury modern home can go for $650,000 to $800,000.
