Welcome to Braeswood

Braeswood is a group of comfortable subdivisions developed after World War II for the most part, which have survived the pressure brought about by deteriorating apartment and commercial districts on its edges. In the process, the community has reinvented itself through the creation of a community center on the site of a collection of apartments along Stella Link.  Today, construction of expensive new homes has resulted, originally north of Brays Bayou in Braes Heights, but now spreading to the west in Ayrshire, and the south in Braes Terrace and Knollwood Village.

Six Reasons why a Condo or Townhome might be a good idea. 

Ask us a Question

No Yard Work

Does being responsible for you own yard and home exterior bore you?

PRO: You will not personally have to do anything the Condo or Townhome Association is required to do.  No more worrying about yard work, or exterior building maintenance.  If applicable, they will also take care of any interior common area maintenance.  

CON: You will lose control over how much the Condo or Townhome Association pays for these services, and you will be required to pay monthly fees and ongoing Condo or Townhome Assessments to cover your share of these costs.  You are still required to maintain the area inside your Condo or Townhome.
