Greendale was built in the late 1930s as one of three federal “greenbelt” planned towns in the United States, and its original village center and cottage-style homes are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Later neighborhoods of ranches and two-story homes surround the historic core, along with Southridge Mall and the Root River Parkway.
Greendale’s smaller original homes and one-story ranches both see steady interest, including from buyers who are simplifying from a larger house.
