Homes in Meadowlawn

The Meadowlawn neighborhood is a classic East Salem subdivision, built primarily in the 1970s with a few newer infill homes sprinkled in from the mid-2000s. Located adjacent to the Meadowlawn Golf Course, this area offers a peaceful, suburban vibe without the price tag or exclusivity of a gated golf community.

Key features:

  • Modestly sized, single-family homes

  • Larger lots than you’ll find in newer developments

  • No HOA—freedom without monthly dues

  • Homes typically range from $325,000 to $425,000

This is a neighborhood where people tend to stay awhile, which helps maintain stability and a sense of community. It’s not trendy or flashy—but that’s part of the charm.

About the Golf Course (And What It’s Not)

Meadowlawn Golf Course is a public, 9-hole course that borders the neighborhood, but don’t confuse this with a “golf club community.” This isn’t Illahe or Creekside, Salemtowne, or Woodburn Senior Estates. Only a handful of homes back up to the course, and there are no HOA perks or private amenities tied to golf course living.

That said, if you enjoy the occasional twilight round or just like the greenery, it’s a nice bonus to have in your backyard (or at least nearby).

 Schools Serving Meadowlawn

This neighborhood feeds into:

  • Four Corners Elementary

  • Houck Middle School

  • North Salem High School

School boundaries can shift, so it’s always worth double-checking with the district if schools are a major factor in your move.

Meadowlawn is a car-dependent neighborhood, like most in East Salem, but you’re a short drive from:

  • Lancaster Drive shopping and services

  • Grocery stores, local restaurants, and coffee spots

  • Parks and open space, including Meadowlawn Golf Course

There’s no HOA, which means more flexibility—but also a wider variety of upkeep and aesthetics from home to home.
