Shaded Village residences
Homes in Village tend to go for between $150,000 and $350,000. Ranch-style homes are the norm in the neighborhood, but there are also colonials, split levels and bungalows throughout the neighborhood. "There are a lot of beautiful expanded ranch homes in Village," says Schraml-Wiggans. Village is home to wide streets thanks to its lack of sidewalks. Lawns in this neighborhood are well-kept and typically have a tree or two growing in the center, creating streets that aren't quite tree-lined, but residents can still enjoy Fall foliage.
Many of the Village homes sit on moderately-sized lots.
