Aggies grow roots in Raintree

Aggieland's established neighborhoods are mostly signified by towering mature trees, and the Raintree subdivision is a prime example of that. The residential neighborhood provides great convenience to many of College Station's best amenities and is a short drive from Bryan, its sister city. “Raintree is an older neighborhood, but it’s a really nice one,” says Amy Melesky, a Realtor with Coldwell Bankers Apex and a lifelong resident of Bryan-College Station. “It’s a nice area and a nice location. The homeowners in there keep up their properties well.”

Texas A&M is a convenient option for those Raintree youths that prefer to stay in town.

Raintree has well-maintained traditional homes

Traditional homes built in the 1980s file along Raintree's residential roads, many of which end in cul-de-sacs away from main thoroughfares. House prices in the neighborhood are pretty consistent with homes in neighboring communities, typically between $250,000 and $350,000. There are also some rental properties in the community, but the majority of homes are owner-occupied. “There’s a lot of families there, and they tend to stay for a long time,” Melesky says, adding that the active HOA, which is about $18 a month, takes care of neighborhood upkeep.

Beachy Central Park has paved trails that loop around the park's lake, which is stocked with catfish. The splash pad provides cool relief in summertime, and Christmas decorations adorn Central Park during the wintert for the city's annual holiday light show.
