Latest January 2026: $177,450What to know about Crown Hill
Crown Hill sits north of downtown, organized around Crown Hill Cemetery and the Children's Museum corridor. It is one of the most value-driven north-side neighborhoods, with a wide range of housing condition and a meaningful share of investor-owned and value-add properties.
The housing stock is mostly historic homes, bungalows, duplexes, and smaller single-family properties from the early-to-mid-1900s. Condition varies significantly block by block. The price spread on a given street can be larger than in more uniform neighborhoods.
The latest Redfin data (January 2026) shows a median sale price around $177,450, with homes selling for about 95% of list and a 60-day median days on market. The reported 25.4% year-over-year change reflects a small sample (30 sales in 90 days) and mix shift between renovated and unrenovated transactions, rather than uniform neighborhood appreciation. Treat the YoY number as a directional signal, not a benchmark for any specific address.
It fits value-focused buyers, owner-occupants comfortable doing some work themselves, investors who can underwrite renovations carefully, and sellers with updated homes that can demonstrate finished value. Tradeoffs are real: condition, parking, and access to amenities all vary block by block.
For investors, Crown Hill remains active for BRRRRs, duplex conversions, and long-term holds. For sellers of finished product, presentation and a comp set of similarly updated houses (not raw shells) drive the right price.
