Affordable homes with quarter-acre lots

Most homes in High Point are ranchers and bungalows, but there are split-level and multi-story homes available as well. Red brick and painted wood-siding exteriors are popular; many homes sit on quarter-acre lots or larger with short driveways and attached garages or carports and towering, tall trees setting the scene. Many houses are midcentury constructions with renovations through the years to keep them modern. Homes start around $150,000 for single-story, midcentury options and are typically between $200,000 and $300,000 for newly renovated versions. Oak View is a heavily wooded area with trees lining the streets and backyards. “It’s a great place to settle down,” says Taylor. “I’ve even built a few houses in the area.”
