A suburban Columbia community

In Green Meadows, sloping streets spread into cul-de-sacs, and mature maples grow along sidewalks, offering a shady canopy for residents to walk under. This community paints the picture of classic suburban living — children can play in forested backyards, and residents can grill out on hot summer nights or enjoy a relaxing evening walk after work. Throughout the years, Green Meadows has attracted those seeking an established and family-oriented community, according to local Realtor Morgan McNally with Century 21 Community. This is mainly because “There’s much more single-family influence and less college rental influence when compared to other communities in Columbia,” McNally says. Yet, locals are still just a few miles from the University of Missouri and downtown Columbia, aka The District. Green Meadows also offers direct proximity to a variety of shops, restaurants, green spaces and Columbia's highly rated public schools.

New Traditionals, ranch-styles and more

While there are some pockets of new construction, most homes here were built in the ‘70s and ‘80s. Recent builds primarily consist of brick New Traditional styles, while older designs include ranch-styles, bi-levels and a few custom midcentury modern homes. Some properties have “Basements, and some are on slabs depending on typography — the further you get from downtown, the more hills and valleys you’ll find,” McNally says. Green Meadows is just south of Hinkson Creek, which causes some nearby homes to receive higher-than-average Flood Factor Scores, but Morgan says that generally, "There's no concern about flooding.” According to McNally, properties typically sit on a third of an acre of land and range in price from $350,000 to $500,000. They sell fast, after an average of 8 days on the market, compared to the national average of 43 days.

Greenbriar Connector, Rock Bridge State Park and more

McNally calls Green Meadows' proximity to the Greenbriar Connector a big draw to the community. This paved pathway passes through wooded areas, stretching less than half a mile and offering links to MKT, Hinkson Creek and MU trails — which McNally says are “all interconnected by a system” and have become popular walking and biking spots. The community is also near several green spaces, including Oakwood Hills Park. Here, locals can shoot hoops with their friends while kids have fun on the playground. Nearby, at the Country Club of Missouri, members can spend afternoons playing golf, swimming laps in the pool and challenging their friends to pickleball matches. Hikers here often head to the Rock Bridge Memorial State Park, which is less than 4 miles away. It features the Devil’s Icebox Trail, which meanders through a dense leafy canopy and passes by a cave that stretches more than 100 feet long.

Friday night lights and nearby events

Green Meadows’ location means locals are in walking-distance of University of Missouri's football games. They’re also not far from a number of events, including the year-round Columbia Farmers Market; days, hours and activities depend on the season. When June rolls around, the city gears up for the annual Art in the Park, where dozens of creatives come to sell their artwork. In the fall, the Heritage Festival & Craft Show entertains locals with demonstrations by traditional artists, music and more.

Murry’s, a nearby Aldi and Columbia Mall

While Green Meadows is entirely residential, there are a number of nearby restaurants that locals can enjoy. McNally recommends Murry’s. “It’s been around for forever. It’s a place that everyone in Columbia knows and goes to,” he adds, calling the restaurant “a Columbia standard.” Besides elevated American classics, Murry’s offers live jazz music that, coupled with dim lighting, sets the tone for a relaxing evening. McNally also recommends Flyover for tapas, drinks and its constantly changing menu. For groceries, residents can head to a nearby Aldi location and for retail shopping, the Columbia Mall is conveniently just about 5 miles away.
