THE COLLECTION

A LETTER FROM Mark Woodroof

We are excited to share that BHGRE Gary Greene is celebrating our 60th anniversary this year! It is an incredible milestone and we couldn't have achieved it without the support of our loyal clients and communities.

Since our founding in 1963, we have been committed to providing high-quality representation and outstanding service to generations of home buyers and sellers. Our team of over 1,000 dedicated real estate agents in 16 offices across 10 counties continue to set the standard for real estate in the Greater Houston area.

But our success is not just measured by our sales numbers. We believe in giving back to the communities we serve, and through the Gary Greene Realtor Foundation, we have donated over $4 million to local charities. We are proud to continue this legacy of making a positive impact on our communities.

As we celebrate this monumental milestone, we want to express our gratitude to our clients for choosing us as their real estate advisor. We know you have choices, and we are honored you continue to choose us.

Please enjoy the spring issue of “The Collection” and take a moment to appreciate the luxury homes featured within it, as they are just a glimpse of the excellence offered by Gary Greene since 1963.

Thank you for your continued support and we look forward to many more years of serving you.

Mimosa Terrace makes a subtle statement of sophistication as it blends into the graceful and historic neighborhood of River Oaks.

Each of the 16 luxurious homes at Mimosa Terrace are designed to enrich the flow of your life. Spacious indoor / outdoor living, corner residences, and oversized windows spilling light – all converging to create a special sense of place.

Adjacent to the vibrant Upper Kirby District, River Oaks was established in 1920 and hailed as one of the country’s earliest models for community planning. The neighborhood planners ensured that River Oaks’ parks and esplanades were planted with oaks, shrubs, azaleas and other flowers creating what was advertised as a ‘distinguished experiment in fine living.' Also part of the early neighborhood planning was the Donald Ross designed golf course at the River Oaks Country Club.

A century later this vision for River Oaks continues to flourish as the community remains one of Houston’s most prestigious addresses. In close proximity to fine dining, shopping, downtown entertainment, as well as Midtown, The Galleria and the Shops at Arrive, River Oaks is the perfect live, work and play community.

Inspired by the history and architecture of this distinctive neighborhood, Mimosa Terrace is a contemporary way for you to enjoy the sophistication of River Oaks.
