Beautiful, classic College
Hill - one of the more sought after areas of Wichita, KS!
Originally the area for affluent WSU professors to build, the area is
now a great collection of vintage homes from the 1920's and 1930's era.
Generally
the area is
defined as between Hillside and Oliver, and between Kellogg and Central.
Some folks try to carry this across Oliver, but that's
actually considered Crown Heights area. Just a couple of
miles north is the Wichita State University campus. And of
course, the southern boundary of Kellogg makes it very easy to get
anywhere in the city. Another mile or so down Douglas and
you'll pass through the Eastborough area and to the Towne East Mall.
So on top of being a classy vintage area, it's also
convenient and features a good selection of its own eclectic shops in
the Douglas Design District.
College Hill Park
is a beautiful, peaceful, grassy park with
established trees, great walking paths and large open areas for playing
or picnicking! It's located on the southern end of College Hill, south
of Douglas, in one of the few hilly areas of the city.
As far as the homes of College Hill, look below and see many of the
features of the area that you'll find. Keep in mind that
these are vintage 20's and 30's homes. You'll find a lot of
original features, many which may seem odd to us these days, smaller
yards and garages, rough basements, and generally higher maintenance
homes.
Ah, but
if only WE could look so good going into our
90's and beyond!
