Hillyard is a historic northeast Spokane neighborhood that began as a Great Northern Railway company town in the 1890s and was annexed by the city in 1924. The housing stock skews to early-1900s working-class single-homes on tight lots, and the Market Street commercial corridor — designated a historic district — anchors the neighborhood’s character. Median sales typically run $275K to $425K, with renovated craftsman homes trading at $475K and up.

Full neighborhood guide forthcoming. Hillyard reads as one of Spokane’s most accessible entry points for first-time buyers and renovation-oriented investors. The Market Street district is in the middle of a long, slow reinvestment cycle, and the housing stock varies block-to-block — careful inspection of systems, foundations, and sewer laterals is essential on anything that hasn’t been recently updated.
