Little Rock suburb on the Arkansas River
On the shores of the Arkansas River, the aptly named Scenic Hill serves as a respite from the hustle and bustle of Little Rock's urban core. Featuring a small collection of single-family homes and a handful of apartment and assisted living complexes, the neighborhood’s biggest draw is its proximity to Emerald Park and Burns Park, two large North Little Rock Parks. “We are starting to see some first-time homebuyers look in Scenic Hill because of the price point,” says Mike Zanoff, a real estate agent with Crye-Leike Realtors with 14 years of experience in the market. “Aside from the price point, it has easy proximity to the interstate and multiple parks.”
Classic ranch homes for sale and apartments to rent
Scenic Hills provides the opportunity to be a renter or purchase a home, maybe as a first-time buyer. A pair of apartment complexes – The Villas and The Ridge – are gated and offer varying amenities to their renters. Single-family homes are predominately brick ranch-style properties on lightly wooded compact lots. Properties feature carports and have sloped, fenced-in backyards. Prices range from $80,000 to $215,000, but buyers can expect a three-bedroom ranch to sell for around $170,000. “Houses are staying on the market longer for sure. However, homes under $200,000 still move relatively quickly,” Zanoff says.

Students head to Boone Park Elementary, North Little Rock Middle School and North Little Rock High School.

Emerald and Burns Parks
Emerald Park spans 135 acres and has trails zipping through it. Hikers and bikers who reach the top of the bluff the park is on are treated to striking views of the lakeside and the scores of loblolly pine trees. The park developed into a mainstay for locals looking to take their four-legged friends on an extra-long walk and those just wanting to take in panoramic views of the area. The trails here link to Burns Park, a 1,700-acre tourist destination and one of the largest parks in the state. Unfortunately, in March 2023, a large tornado caused significant damage to several areas of the park, and while it was open, some of its features were offline. When fully operational, parkgoers can find tennis courts, multi-use paved and unpaved trails, multiple sports complexes, including a golf course, an amusement park, a covered bridge, and even a World War II tank.
