My wife and I just moved back into the exact neighborhood you are talking about moving into. We really can't say enough good things about it! We used to live near 15th and Adams, and just several houses away from the Rocket Bakery. We enjoyed living there very much!! We later found a 1- room schoolhouse in the Saltese Flats area that we were going to convert into our home. We made an offer on it and it was accepted contingent upon selling our house. We sold our house, and the underwriter declined the loan only 2 days before closing. No fault on our part, they were just apprehensive on the scope of the project. We felt devastated. Fast forward several months.. we just recently found and bought a foreclosure in our old neighborhood just a short ways away from our old house, and we couldn't be happier!! We really love old houses and their character, charm, and history. You're absolutely looking in the right area!!! The Cliff Park Addition/Cannon Hill area is truly an amazing place to call home. Tree lined streets chock full of historic homes, 3 amazing parks to walk to and play at with the children (Cliff, Cannon Hill, & Manito), Rosauers grocery store down the street within walking distance, Rocket Bakery, Bennidito's Pizza, Huckleberrys Natural Market, Rockwood Bakery, downtown shopping and restaurants, etc.. It's a great place indeed.
