Brick custom homes from the 2000s
While older ranch-style homes sprinkle the north side, newer custom homes are the norm in Briarbrook. These typically date from the early 2000s through today, with most featuring brick facades. Schuber Mitchell, an active builder in the area, owns part of the subdivision and has pre-built new construction homes and lots still available for semi-custom builds. Prices range from around $215,000 on the low end to $650,000 for homes with golf course views. Briarbrook has its own Community Improvement District, meaning residents pay an additional tax. "It goes to maintain the golf course, which in turn maintains the property values," Sneed says.
