Large estates near shopping and parks
A drive along Glenbrook’s streets takes people past large, unique homes that feel like their own world within the gated communities that make up the neighborhood. However, one turn out of the area makes it clear that residents are anything but isolated. “The location is tops,” says Tami Murphy, broker associate with the Nichols Hills office of McGaw Realtors with over 10 years of experience. “You’re close to the Nichols Hills community without paying the high taxes there. You’re close to everything here – mainly shopping.” The sprawling Penn Square Mall is less than 1 mile away and is just across the street from a smaller shopping center. Retail is not the only nearby amenity, with Lake Hefner about 3 miles away. Downtown Oklahoma City is about 7 miles away.

Lake Hefner and surrounding parks
Lake Hefner is about 3 miles from Glenbrook. On the water, kayakers and canoers paddle away while anglers try to reel in their next catch.

Penn Square Mall and nearby shops
Glenbrook is surrounded by retail and dining options, so residents only sometimes need to make the 7-mile trek into Downtown Oklahoma City. Murphy mentions Bellini’s Ristorante & Grill, which resides in the northwestern part of the neighborhood, although her recommendation comes from more than the establishment’s Italian cuisine. “It’s a great place to go during a tornado because it’s underground,” Murphy says. “The best way to access it is through the underground parking garage.” At the nearby Tucker’s Onion Burgers, patrons can enjoy a fried onion burger – a state-wide staple with grilled onions and American cheese - in a retro setting. Penn Square Mall is just south of Glenbrook and features more than 140 stores, including Macy’s, Apple and Eddie Bauer. Belle Isle Station is a shopping center surrounding the mall, including Walmart and Nordstrom Rack. Residents can do most of their grocery shopping at Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods.
