Oak Forest/Garden Oaks Homes and Condos for Sale

Garden Oaks and Oak Forest are two quaint neighborhoods located in Houston, Texas. In 1937, Edward L. Crain established the community of Garden Oaks just north of Houston Heights, which is one of the largest neighborhoods in the city of Houston. The region was named for the abundance of oak trees in and around the area. The sizeable community of Oak Forest is located in the northwestern part of Houston. In 1947, the Oak Forest Realty Corporation initially established Oak Forest shortly after the city of Houston annexed the territory. The first house built served as the sales office for the realty company, which sold homes to World War II veterans ranging in price from $8,000 to $10,000. As for Harris County, it was founded in 1836 and named for one of the earliest settlers named John Richardson Harris. Numerous corporate entities call Harris County home, such as Hewlett-Packard which is now located in a complex once owned by Compaq. Other significant employers include Smith International, BJ Services Company, General Electric, and Cybersoft Technologies.

Houston is rich in history and steeped in cultural diversity, providing residents and tourist alike with numerous amenities and entertainment options. Shopping and dining options include places such as The Galleria which is an upscale mixed-use urban development shopping mall located at 5085 Westheimer Road.

Some of the dining options include 51fifteen Cuisine & Cocktails, The Cheesecake Factory, Chili's, Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steak House, and FIG & OLIVE, among others. Furthermore, there are many family-friendly venues in Houston. A great example is Wet'n'Wild Splashtown located at 21300 Interstate 45 North in Spring. Besides being a waterpark, there is the Wild Wave Concert Stage that hosts concerts during the summer seasons, Dive 'n' Movies where patrons can play in the pool while watching a movie and hosts some other special event all throughout the year. Additionally, there are numerous golf courses near both Oak Forest and Garden Oaks. One of these courses is Golf Club of Houston located at 5860 Wilson Road in Humble. It features two 18-hole courses and plays host a PGA Tour event called the Shell Houston Open. Golf Club of Houston was designed by tour pro David Toms and Rees Jones, a highly respected American golf course architect.
