Located
near historic Mt. Rubidoux and
the beautiful Mission Inn
The homes in the historic
Downtown area represents a century of architectural history. The history
begins around Mount Rubidoux overlooking Fairmont Park and Lake Evans.
Riverside's early wealthy citizens built their fashionable Queen Anne and
Victorian Estates. Next came the California bungalows and European and
Mission Revival homes. It is an architectural Preservationist's delight.
The homes details including wrought iron fixtures, tile roofs,
decorative timber make a drive along beautiful Ladera Lane and Redwood
drive a delight. There are several historic districts in the Downtown
area that enforce architectural and landscaping guidelines for the
purpose of maintaining their appearance and value.
The feeder High School is North
High School, home of the acclaimed International Baccalaureate Program.
North has the reputation of an academically demanding campus with great
diversity. Parents drive from throughout the district to have their
children attend this program
If you love the unique and
interesting the Downtown neighborhood is for you. Houses range between
$120,000 on up to the $500,000 for the beautifully designed homes by noted
architect Spurgeon gracing Bankers Row.
