Where it is: Rincon Heights

Listed by:  Long Realty

The damage: $395,00

You’ll love it because: This is a compact, perfect, smaller, low-maintenance home just blocks from the U of A.  It’s energy efficient everything, with Rastra block construction.  People aren’t always aware of all the “off-gassing” that goes on in new homes and remodels, but it’s nice to see this one has used all natural paints and finishes inside, and non-formaldahyde cabinetry.

Here comes the but: All those upgrades to create such a beautiful home make this house an expensive one on a tiny lot. It works out at $386 per square foot.
