Aggies grow roots in this southern Bryan neighborhood

When it comes to Bryan's North Garden Acres neighborhood, convenience pairs with spacious living. The neighborhood is a few miles from Texas A&M University, which is a draw for those looking to be close to almost everything that the sister cities of College Station and Bryan have to offer. "It's actually closer to the university than many other parts of College Station," says Jordan Kleckley, a broker associate with Brick and Parcel Real Estate Group who has lived in the area for over two decades. "One of the biggest things is its proximity to A&M. With that, you get proximity to restaurants and stores, and the fact that you get larger lots is really nice. You just have a little more elbow room there."

Ranch and traditional style homes on large lots

"Garden Acres is an older neighborhood, and the lot sizes are pretty big," Kleckley says. "If you're looking for those wood-frame type of homes, you'll get that there." Ranch homes built in the early 1960s with manicured lawns and towering mature trees are common. Prices typically range from $160,000 to $375,000, with homes on larger lots on the higher end of the spectrum.
