Belmont Heights is especially prized for its early 20th-century homes and well-preserved architecture—with two designated Historic Districts adding to its charm and value:
Belmont Heights Historic Landmark District
Spanning from 4th to 7th Street, between Newport and Roswell Avenues, this district features original Craftsman, Spanish Revival, and Tudor-style homes full of period details and front-porch charm.
Eliot Lane Historic District
A charming one-block enclave of 1920s bungalows, Eliot Lane offers a snapshot of vintage coastal living in a tightly knit setting.
Both districts help preserve the neighborhood’s architectural integrity—and may offer property tax benefits under the Mills Act, which rewards homeowners who maintain and restore historic properties.
Belmont Heights real estate is both architecturally rich and consistently in demand. Homes range from meticulously preserved bungalows to expansive updated estates, many with deep lots, mature landscaping, and timeless curb appeal.
Buyers are drawn to the blend of style, substance, and location. Sellers benefit from a neighborhood with limited inventory, strong value retention, and meaningful local history.
