About this home

Don't miss your chance to transform this Rockwood gem into something extraordinary.
Rockwood, located between Manito Park and the South Hill bluff, is a residential and historic Spokane neighborhood with curving, tree-lined streets and stately early-20th-century homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Rockwood Boulevard corridor, where broad medians, stonework, and a slow, scenic pace set the tone. Tudor Revival and Craftsman architecture mixes with manicured gardens and pocket viewpoints over the city. The Rockwood Bakery & Coffeehouse serves as a familiar gathering spot for pastries and espresso. Nearby, the Gaiser Conservatory at Manito Park and the Northwest Museum of Arts & Culture add cultural gravity beyond the residential lanes.

The residential zones implement the residential goals and policies and land use plan map designations of the comprehensive plan. They are intended to preserve land for housing and to provide housing opportunities for individual households. The zones are distinguished by the permitted uses, the housing types, and intensity of development allowed. The differences in the zoning categories reflect the diversity of residential areas in the City. The limits on the intensity of uses and the development standards promote the desired form for the residential area. The standards are intended to provide certainty to property owners, developers, and neighbors of what is allowed in the various categories.; The R1 zone is a low-intensity residential zone. The zone allows a range of housing choices built at the general scale and height of detached houses. This includes both detached and attached homes and middle housing types.
