Affordable neighborhood with proximity to Downtown Little Rock

The oddest detail about 65th Street West might be that its namesake road isn’t even technically a part of the neighborhood. Within the area's boundaries, the road is known as Hindman Park Way, but once past South University Avenue, 65th Street West features multiple fast-food chains and eclectic storefronts. The neighborhood is a typical suburban area far enough from downtown to avoid the significant foot traffic but not too far, where it seems like nothing is going on. “65th Street West is an affordable area,” says Christy Robinson, Realtor for Keller Williams Realty who has been in the Little Rock market for 13 years. “The median home price is around $100,000, and it’s easily accessible to the interstate.”

Classic ranch-style homes on wooded lots

A starting place for first-time home buyers, brick ranch styles are tightly packed on compact, densely wooded lots with spacious, fully fenced-in backyards and carports. Prices range from $59,000 to $235,000, but buyers can expect a three-bedroom ranch-style for a little less than $150,000. The market in 65th Street West moves a little faster than the national average, as listings last 34 days compared to the national average of 38.

The Mabelvale Plaza and favorite restaurants

Residents have multiple restaurant options when it comes to retail. Locals pick up weekly groceries and other home essentials like electronics from the Walmart Supercenter on Baseline Road. The Mabelvale Plaza on Highway 67 features Cato's Fashion, among other storefronts, but also a Concentra Urgent Care for when accidents happen. While there are fast food places like Pizza Hut, Wednesday, and Popeye’s, to name a few, some other local hot spots are nearby. Frontier Diner is known for its breakfast options but also serves sandwiches, while Shooters is a bar only open on Friday and Saturday and has traditional bar fare but live music each night.

Hindman Park

Spanning 210 acres, Hindman Park features an 18-hole disc golf course and hard-surfaced tennis and basketball courts. For a more leisurely afternoon, the green space features a picnic pavilion, or hikers and bikers can use the paved trail that cuts through the park's hills for an adventure. 65th Street West is also home to Tulsa Elite Arkansas, a softball organization that promotes the sport throughout the state and trains young players to play in college and beyond.
