The Belcaro neighborhood, surrounding the Phipps mansion and grounds, includes beautiful homes with lovely lawns. It is a haven for elegant, predominantly large ranch-style homes on substantial, lushly landscaped lots.

Recently, custom builders have used these lots to create masterpieces to a scale not always afforded in other urban neighborhoods.
Adjacently located, the quaint neighborhood of Bonnie Brae was designed to resemble a Scottish village complete with curving streets, a circular central park, a winding boulevard and a collection of small shops where residents could congregate and mingle. Home styles in Bonnie Brae range from charming little Cape Cods and tidy brick ranges to larger two-story brick and fame homes and English Tudors. Bonnie Brae is a sanctuary in the heart of the city.
