Braeswood Place, located between the Texas Medical Center and Meyerland, is a residential and park-lined Houston neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and bayou greenways. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along the Braes Bayou trail near the intersection of Stella Link Rd and S Braeswood Blvd, where joggers, cyclists, and dog-walkers stream past shady bridges and pocket parks. Low-slung brick houses, newer townhomes, and apartment communities sit on curving streets shaped by the bayou. Weekend rhythms center on trail miles and picnic lawns at nearby parks. Local staples like Helen Greek Food & Wine, the Evelyn Rubenstein Jewish Community Center, and the Houston Maritime Center & Museum add a cultured, lived-in feel.

Great lot in Bellaire Area. Gorgeous old growth tree commands the front yard. Existing home will need to be removed. According to family, the existing home didn’t flood during Harvey, so it appears one of the higher lots in the area.
