Winrock homes are a popular alternative to the more expensive Inner Loop condos and Downtown Houston condos. Winrock features good amenities, accessibility, and great schools.

The community is famous thanks to its:

• EXCELLENT ACCESSIBILITY: Winrock homes are bordered by the major thoroughfares. Major roads nearby are Westheimer, San Felipe, Voss, and Briargrove Drive.

• GREAT LOCATION: Winrock homes are surrounded by some of Houston's best hotspots. The Galleria, one of Houston's premier destinations with its upscale shops and restaurants, is less than 3 miles east of Winrock. Houston's hottest Inner Loop neighborhoods are also less than 5 miles away. Nearby communities include Piney Point Village, Hunters Creek, and Tanglewood.

• COMMUNITY AMENITIES AND RECREATIONS NEARBY: Winrock homes are mostly located in gated communities and complexes. Most of which feature several amenities, including private courtyards, pools, clubhouses, and play areas. Parks located around the area include Park at Bering, Grady Park, and most of west Tanglewood's parks. The Houston Country Club offers trail systems and open spaces only a mile away. Nestled 3 miles away is the expansive Memorial Park.

• AFFORDABILITY: Winrock homes are also known for their affordable and gorgeous abodes. Condos near Inner Loop and Downtown areas can go as high as $3.5 million. On the other hand, Winrock homes have a more affordable range. Winrock homes prices have a median price of $220,000. Winrock real estate listings include an open concept floor plan and hardwood floors. Most homes have an updated chef's kitchen and a spacious fenced back patio.

• HIGH PERFORMING SCHOOLS: Winrock homes are zoned to the Houston Independent School District (HISD). Students in the area may attend Briargrove Elementary, Grady Middle School, and Lee High School. Grady Middle School is one of the Best Schools in Houston.

Winrock real estate can be tricky to navigate given the area's proximity to major roads (which can hurt resale). Lack of zoning as there are some homes that may have street parking issues. A diversity of builders (some far superior to others) are also a factor.

“We had a great experience buying a home in the greater Houston area with Brad! We were first time home buyers who were completely ignorant of what’s involved in buying a home, and we were buying from out of state, so we had to put offers on houses we didn’t see in person. Brad made this very easy for us, and he went to many open houses, taking detailed videos of the different homes. We had initially planned on waiting to buy a home until after moving to Houston, but Brad made us feel confident in buying a home remotely. It was important for us to have as stress-free an experience as possible buying a home, and Brad was so good at what he does that it really was almost entirely stress-free for us. He’s a native Houstonian, and he was able to answer our worries and concerns about different houses we were interested in and gave us all the information we needed to make an informed decision. When we were putting in offers, Brad was able to help us move very quickly in a high-paced market, getting offers in within 24-48 hours of first finding a house. He would do comparisons of comparable homes to give us an idea of whether a property was priced right and what a reasonable offer would be. Once our offer was accepted, Brad made it very easy for us when we came to town to see the property in person, arranging all of the details with the sellers for our visit. Throughout our time working with him, Brad has been great at patiently answering our often long and detailed questions about even relatively minor details, and he’s great at being proactive, calling us frequently to check in and see if we had any questions or to let us know what the next step would be. Even after closing on the home, he’s been staying in touch with us. We’re so happy to own our own home, and we’re so delighted with the house! Overall, it’s been a really pleasant experience buying a home with Brad’s help, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a home in the greater Houston area!” - Ben Koons (Google Review)
