Allenwood Estates with a lending library and access to Route 75

Older homes with crawlspaces, no HOA and large yards
The neighborhood is older, with most homes built in the 1960s and early 70s, with prices that can range between about $170,000 and $400,000. “The majority of homes are three bedroom, two baths.,” says Kozlowski. “One amenity of the houses there is that they have crawlspaces under the homes.” Homes nowadays are often built on a concrete slab, instead of with a crawlspace. “It can be a little bit cheaper to fix when there’s a shift in the Texas soil. They can go in under the house and do [repairs]. It’s also a little bit warmer when you have a wood floor and a crawlspace.” Allenwood Estates does not have an HOA and most properties have big yards. “The yards are very deep. Your neighborhoods have a big yard, so you have lots of space,” Kozlowski says. Allenwood Estates does not have backyard alley leading into garages. “Some people like the alleys with the back entrance, but it’s hard to meet your neighbors that way. It’s primarily front entrance garages,” says Kozlowski. “It’s a reminder of earlier times. You see a lot of people outside, walking their pets.”
Willow Creek Circle is separate from the other sections of Allenwood Estates and has a homeowners association. The last listed home was about $800,000, higher than the other sections of Allenwood Estates.
Ranch-style homes and large yards define Allenwood Estates.
