Memorial Park hosts a 15,000 acre park
Memorial Park is one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Houston, and with good reason. The striking homes here emit European flair, and its namesake 15,000-acre park is the Platonic Ideal of a city park. From a public swimming pool and mountainous hiking paths to public art and a golf course, it’s understandable why homes next to this giant urban green space are priced higher than others in the vicinity.
The market is doubly competitive because the only homes in this neighborhood occupy a smattering of blocks on the northeast edge of the park. “If you’re going to be in the city but you want that more rural feel of being in the country that’s the place to be,” says Lisa Peltier, a Realtor with Nan & Company, who’s been selling homes in the area for eight years. “There are 100-year-old trees all over Memorial Park.”

Memorial Park homes offer international style
There’s a block of new townhouses on Blossom Street in Memorial Park that illustrate the pinnacle of contemporary urban architecture. Inspired by London’s Kensington Hotel, these palatial residences combine the best of the old with the new. French windows open onto Venetian balconies, and boxed eaves give the clean white facades the impression of a Neapolitan townhouse. But inside, the design and amenities are anything but antique.
Additionally, there are beautiful mansions built in the Monterey Revival style with ornate moldings and tiled patios. Massive Spanish Colonials with arched window walls and red clay tile roofs occupy precious half-acres behind steel gates. Townhouses with two stories of balconies accessed by French windows and ornate columns further contribute to the European feel of the neighborhood. “There is a hodgepodge of everything over there. There’s modern new construction and then there are older historic homes,” Peltier says. “Some of the lots are super small with almost no yard. Others are on an acre. It just depends on where you are.”
Homes typically sell for around $1 million. On the low end, homebuyers might find a two-bedroom townhome in the high-$500,000s, while mammoth estates top out at $1.4 million.
These huge luxury homes are great for large families in Memorial Park.
