Greenway Home Styles –

Styles of homes are reminiscent of the 70’s.  Ranch style, split and contemporary tri-level layouts with real cedar siding and composition roofs.  Given the generous lot sizes it’s most common to have everything on one level, a great selling point.  Houses are remodeled somewhat but updates are not overly extravagant as budget conscious owners keep it all in check.  Opportunity to find original fixtures and finishes make this a good investment area for sweat equity.
