Upscale Spanish Revival homes and condos
Briarwood is made up primarily of single-family homes but it also features condos, some of which come with attached garages. Spanish Revival architecture, with its tiled roofs and stucco exteriors, is a typical housing style. Well-manicured lawns are common in the front, as are screened-in swimming pools in the back, and many houses feature scenic lake views. Most single-family homes range from $700,000 to $1 million, while condos are in the $300,000 to $400,000 range. Estate homes line the Golden Gate Canal in the Bella Lago section of the community, where properties are in the $1 million to $1.7 million range. Briarwood offers homeowners the flexibility to rent out homes on a weekly basis, up to 52 times per year, depending on the property. "The key is that a lot of people who buy in there are not there year-round, so it can be a good investment property," says Jane Wood, a local sales associate with John R. Wood Properties. "Being a gated community, you can still feel very secure if you're not there all the time."
Most Briarwood homes are built in a Spanish revival style.
