Forest Hills Homes for Sale
Forest Hills dates back to 1936 and development has continued over the years. Homes for sale include listings built as far back as the 1950s as well as recent new construction. Forest Hills feature different styles as it's not a neighborhood of cookie-cutter homes. The diverse collection of homes vary from small cottages to newer construction homes inspired by Contemporary and European style. Shaded estate size lots are common in the area. The majority of homes for sale sit on half-acre lots or more, with the neighborhood streets dotted with trees and green spaces.

Homeowners Association
According to the Forest Hills HOA, the tree may define the neighborhood, but residents define the spirit of the community. The association hosts several events all year, including Casino and Poker Night, Taste of Italy and other neighborhood events and parties.
