Believe it or not, I have indeed been walking and even taking pic, I just haven't been blogging. It is fun, but when the sun is out, it's the last thing on one's mind.
But today I had to let a radon-inspector into a home on SE 28th, in lovely Sunnyside and so I decided it was a good day for a walk.
Today I chose Belmont to Salmon, 28th-33rd. It's an area of mostly large four-squares, craftsmen, bungalows, and victorians, and when I say large I mean LARGE - many with verandas and porticos, turrets, or cupolas. They range from slightly grungy and unkempt to grande dames, and I noted that many were being prepped for painting as we speak.
Sunnyside, or Belmont as many call it, is a very trendy and hip area with just enough crusty-ness to keep it real. There are several areas of 'community' accentuated with bright paintings, art spaces, and hand built adobe settees.
Six month prices run between $230K for a townhouse up to $520 for new construction, with the median range for a craftsman/victorian or bungalow being $380K.
Sunnyside has an active community of neighbors as witnessed by their Sunnyside Nbhd Facebook Page.
Oh and sorry for the poor photography, the sun was just too bright for my lil iPhone 4 today!
