Tealwood Real Estate Guide

Tealwood homes for sale & insider real estate guide

Like Memorial Forest and Whispering Oaks, Tealwood straddles both the city of Houston and Bunker Hill Village. The neighborhood is popular for its highly regarded schools, historical homes on large lots, and central location.

Tealwood residents enjoy its excellent features, including:

MULTI-AWARD WINNING SCHOOLS: Tealwood homes are zoned to the Spring Branch Independent School District. National Blue Ribbon Schools Frostwood Elementary, Bunker Hill Elementary, Memorial Middle, and Memorial High School all serve the community. (See Guide To Houston’s Best Schools.)
BUNKER HILL LOCATION: Forbes listed Bunker Hill Village as one of its “Best Suburbs To Live Well”. Tealwood is part of the Memorial Villages, a group of affluent independent cities. Bunker Hill also features some of the most expensive real estate in the Greater Houston area.
LARGE LOTS: Tealwood homes typically sit on large wooded lots (by Houston standards). Lots range from 7,000 to more than 12,500 square feet.
PROXIMITY TO RETAIL AND ENTERTAINMENT: The neighborhood is a few blocks away from Lantern Lane Shopping Center, a small retail center just west of Frostwood. The Memorial City Mall, CityCentre Plaza, and Town & Country Village are all within a few minutes from Tealwood.
EASY ACCESSIBILITY: Two of the area’s busiest streets, Gessner and Memorial, border the Tealwood neighborhood. Homes in the area also have easy access to Interstate 10 and Beltway 8. Residents have fairly short commutes to key business districts like the Galleria, the Energy Corridor, and the Westchase District.
COUNTRY LIVING ATMOSPHERE: Tealwood, like most of its Memorial area neighbors, features a distinct, country living atmosphere. The neighborhood’s tree-lined streets, older homes, and cul-de-sacs exude a tranquil vibe.
HISTORIC HOMES: Most Tealwood homes were built between the mid-1960s to the early 1980s. It is mostly made up of single-family which sit within Houston, while the rest are within the Bunker Hill Village. Architectural styles vary from traditional ranch-style to modern and contemporary designs.

Tealwood real estate can be tricky to navigate due to a number of factors. The list includes older homes (some will need renovations), proximity to busy roads, and limited inventories. Very few Tealwood homes for sale are put up on the market every year. It is beneficial for homebuyers to find a Realtor who knows the area.

“Brad and Laura were amazing and exceeded my expectations. They helped me and my family selling our old home and buying a new one. They were both very professional, knowledgeable and respectful of my time and my family. I have 2 teenagers and a dog that can make anyone's job challenging but they were able to accommodate to our schedule and always seem calm and confident that everything was going to be ok. A process that could have been stressful was actually a pleasure. From the staging and pictures to the day we sold our house everything was great and the house sold really quick at a very good price. Brad was always a call away and was very responsive to any question we might have; excellent communication and customer service skills. Brad was with us every step of the way and did not miss anything for the house we sold and the house we bought; he recommended a very good inspector who was able to find some issues with our new house that the builder was able to fix before we signed on the contract to buy our new house; Brad also went to the final walk through with me and helped me checking the house one last time since my husband was not going to be able to go. Everything from day one was first class with Brad and Laura. I would recommend them as realtors to anyone I know. We hope to stay in this new house for a while but I will definitely contact them the next time I sell and/or buy a new house!” - Paula Sutton (Google Review)
