Weekend Open House Tour: Briargrove and Briargrove Park

Briargrove and Briargrove Park are 5 miles and (to judge from this weekend’s open houses), about $700,000 apart. But both feature homes so eager to be sold that they’re giving up a good portion of their Memorial Day weekend just so you can visit.

  • Wow, 6272 Ella Lee Ln. is on the tax rolls at $382K, wonder why the great disparity.

  • @Tony: The value probably reflects the home that was on the lot before . . . or the vacant lot. It’s new construction, and likely hasn’t been updated by HCAD yet.
