Homes

"Wash West" is characterized by a mix of residential, commercial, and institutional land uses. The neighborhood is the most centrally located area of town, and has experienced significant urban renewal. Housing styles in the area vary greatly - from fine original townhomes, quaint small colonial homes, to low rise condominiums. The early 1960’s brought a wealth of new construction, and the growth continues today.  Offering some of the nation's best medical facilities, Wash West is a favorite for many first time upscale buyers who seek a combination of urban and tranquil living within the city!
