Brendonwood

"Even though Brendonwood is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it is a very forward-thinking neighborhood by today's standards. The community has its own amenities including golf, tennis, swimming, basketball, a playground, hiking trails and a bocce court. There are several annual events which bring the community together for holiday celebrations and tournaments. Security gates control access and keep traffic to a minimum. Brendonwood borders the Fall Creek trail, allowing easy trail biking access to downtown and the Monon. Broad Ripple restaurants are nearby, as is shopping at Keystone at the Crossing, Glendale and Castleton. The location just inside I-69 allows you to miss the traffic jams of the interstate. There is a great variety of home sizes and styles and the average 2-acre lot size allows privacy and a sense of being in a park. 150 of the neighborhoods 350 acres are commonly owned and include hiking trails through ravines and along Fall Creek. Architecture ranges from very traditional to very contemporary. Many homes have been recently renovated or replaced with new construction to a very high standard. There is no cookie cutter here."
