Sell us a lot in Afton Oaks.
Five hundred and twenty-five houses on deep lots just inside the Loop, founded in 1951, where the ranch houses have been selling for the value of the land under them.
The neighbourhood
Newcastle Drive runs down an esplanade, the pocket parks are triangles, and the street markers are rectangular columns, which is how you know you've crossed into Afton Oaks.
- Where
- Westheimer to the north, the railway to the east, the Southwest Freeway to the south and the 610 Loop to the west.
- Lots
- About 8,000 to 10,000 sq ft, built out between 1951 and 1959, mostly as one-storey ranch houses.
- Rules
- The Afton Oaks Civic Club, chartered in 1955, keeps deed restrictions that were re-recorded in 2006, section by section. Its architectural review committee has to see the plans before the city will issue a permit, and tree preservation is enforced.
- Water
- Parts of the neighbourhood lie in the 100-year and 500-year floodplains, which brings Chapter 19 into play. We check each lot.
- Nearby
- The Galleria is five minutes away, and the Looscan Library sits inside the neighbourhood.
