Mid-century ranches
Most of the homes in Lemon Hill were built during the post-war boom of the 1950s. The majority are ranch-style houses with brick and stucco facades, which provide a strong foundation. Houses range from $280,000 to $480,000 for larger homes with four bedrooms. “It’s more affordable than surrounding neighborhoods,” says Thu-Duyen Cao, who has over a decade of experience as a Realtor with RE/MAX Gold. Homes are on narrow lots, meaning neighbors will be close by. However, they also feature spacious backyards, which provide the opportunity for entertaining. Most homes have short driveways and single-car garages for private parking. The residential roads feature sidewalks shaded by mature trees.
Homes from the 60's and 70's make up most of Lemon Hill.
