Highlands.
Highlands is more intact than LoHi below it, with bigger lots to work with.
The housing
What to expect in the area.
Most of the houses are Denver Squares, bungalows and a scattering of Victorians from the 1890s through the 1920s. More of the original houses survived here than in LoHi, and the lots run deeper.
The streets
What it is like to live there.
Highlands Square at 32nd and Lowell is the heart of it, and most of the neighborhood can walk there. The street trees are mature, the front porches actually get used, and the grid stays regular the whole way across.
At market
What to know before you buy.
Condition varies enormously behind similar facades, so the recurring conversations are the foundation, knob and tube wiring, and whether that pop top was permitted. The deep lots also make garages and ADUs worth asking about early.
