Most homes are turn-of-the-century multifamilies that cater to renters
Most residents here rent units in multifamily properties or brick apartment buildings. “There are beautiful turn-of-the-century Victorians for sale,” says Amy Rio, who’s sold homes here for 39 years and is the broker-owner of Executive Real Estate. “A lot of them have been converted into multifamily, but not all.” These Italianate and Queen Anne buildings typically sell for a median price in the lower $300,000s, higher than Hartford’s overall median and higher than in the nearby neighborhoods of Sheldon Charter Oak and Barry Square. Multifamily homes range from the lower $300,000s to the mid-$500,000s, and single-family homes — though uncommon — generally range from the lower $200,000s to the lower $500,000s. Monthly rents range from around $1,200 to $2,500, depending on size and amenities.
