Marchel,

I wish our HOA fees were $10 per year!  The trees and the large lots look great - what kind of price range can a buyer expect in this Tomball subdivision?

Marchel - Low HOA is a good thing.  Being allowed to have a travel trailer in the yard would be a plus for many.

Rita, I kept thinking I had forgot to add something.  I just added the price range.  The current prices have ranged from $135,000 to $202,000.  A HOA with a $10 fee is very unusual in our area.

Jennifer, the low HOA is an appeal for this subdivision.  I had a couple buy in this subdivision because they wanted a place for their travel trailer.  They have loved the subdivision and all the conviences of being in the City of Tomball.

Marchel, what a great looking subdivision...and those TREES! I love an area with lots of trees and this looks like a wonderful place to live!

Mary, it is a nice area.  I sold a home to a retired couple and they are loving it.

Linda, I love all the trees we have around this area.  I had no idea when we moved here 11 years ago that this area was so pretty.  We have loved the area.

Very picturesque. Is this anywhere near the Woodlands? My wife's aunt lives there.

Andrew, it is very close to the Woodlands. It would just be to the south and the west of The Woodlands.  I love all the trees around our area; it makes the area very picturesque.

Marchel this is TOO TOO TOO SCARY!!!  We have a Sherwood Forest here as well with similar home age and prices.  Actually those pictures look like they could have been taken right here.

Kimberly, our areas have quite a few similarities it appears.  There was a Sherwood Forest subdivision in Colorado but the streets were named things like Robin Hood or Friar Tuck.  The streets in this Sherwood Forest are just street names.  So does your Sherwood Forest have the street names to go along with it?

Marchel, YOu never cease to amaze me with the knowledge of your community and your photograhic skills.
Posted by Kay Perry (Kay Perry, Broker) over 4 years ago
Kay, my photographic skills are very much in the development stage so you don't know how much your comment means to me.  We bought a Canon Rebet XTi this year and most of it is just having a great camera.  There has been a bit of a learning curve involved but I'm getting there.

Marchel - If I had not known where you live I would have thought you took those pictures somewhere here in NH. We have lots of trees and builders do not cut them down when building except for the buildable area for the most part. Lovely subdivision.

Judy, isn't it amazing that there are this many trees in Texas.  We had no idea before we moved here that the area was so pretty.  I wish I could say builders did not cut our trees down but here they often clear cut subdivisions.  It is so sad.  Sometimes I just want to throw myself in front of the tractor but I know that would be futile.

Marchel,

I came over to say Thanks for commenting on my post today.  The trees are what I miss most here in the desert southwest.  I'm glad you refrained from throwing yourself in front of the tractor!  LOL

Mike, I do love all the trees here; and I also wish they would quit clear cutting them.  Thanks for stopping by.
Posted by Marchel Peterson Spring TX Real Estate E-Pro (Results Realty) over 4 years ago
Marchel, yes the streets have the Sherwood names.  There is a Robin Hood Way, Friar Tuck Way, Forrest Court, and things like that.
Posted by Huntsville Alabama Real Estate Agent, Kimberly Grant (Exit Leon Crawford Realty) over 4 years ago
I have been through this subdivision before and there are lots of nice older homes with large lots and beautiful trees. Its well worth the look and i can say that i love Tomball having lived there myself!

Hi Marchel:  These prices sound really great, and the larger treed lots would fit very nicely with my privacy hot button.  Thanks for sharing...

Shellee, I love Tomball also, it is the city with a heart.

Karen Anne, this would be a great place for someone who is looking for an oversized lot with privacy.
