Luxury Royden Oaks Homes For Sale
Royden Oaks subdivision is a small neighborhood within the vicinity of River Oaks. Royden Oaks has an ongoing trend of replacing older properties with new construction and newly remodeled homes.

Still, Royden Oaks has an identity on its own. Its small-town feel and “close-knit” neighborhood vibe are just some of the reasons it is one of the 20 most expensive neighborhoods in Houston.
It is the best neighborhood outside of River Oaks for the following reasons:
- Quiet ambience: The neighborhood is near enough West Loop and Southwest Freeways but is secluded enough to not be affected by the noise and heavy traffic.
- Stunning views: Crape myrtles lining Willowick bloom every summer, adding shades of pink, red, and lavender to the lush greenery.
- Established community: An active civic club enforces strict deed-restrictions, back-door trash pick up, 24-hour security, and maintains the beautiful esplanades.
- Best shopping options: It has excellent access to the best shopping districts in Houston; Highland Village Shopping Center, River Oaks Shopping Center, and the world-famous The Galleria.
- High-value properties: Royden Oaks are always in high demand. Its land value has increased by 200% in the past decade.
Due to its small size and often low inventory, finding the best Royden Oaks Houston realtor familiar with the area is crucial to securing your Royden Oaks home.
