Seldom do you see the words Greenway Parks lease in the same sentence. Luxury home rentals are rare enough these days but finding one in this popular neighborhood is almost unheard of.
Greenway Parks has about 300 homes that people seldom leave. Most sell by word of mouth or are passed down to family members. The neighborhood is filled with architecturally significant homes in a wide variety of styles, but, of course, like most neighborhoods, there is new construction.
However, as Greenway Parks is a conservation district, there’s a great deal of scrutiny about what gets built and how. This Greenway Parks lease was completely rebuilt and expanded from its 1949 origins. There is still a bit of the original brickwork and foundation, but it’s basically a brand new home of 4,057 square feet with four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a powder bath.
It sits on a 100 x 140-foot lot backing up to the greenbelt space. If you are not familiar with Greenway Parks’ signature greenbelt, it’s where everyone hopes to have a home.
When the neighborhood was built in the mid-1920s, the developers, F.N. Drane and J.P. Stephenson, enlisted Texas architect David Williams. They had seen his work in newspaper articles and were sold on his adaptation of the English concept of homes centered around a large common green space.
When this Greenway Parks home was rebuilt, the greenbelt was of prime consideration. “Myles Caldwell, the owner of AMC Architects, expanded the foundation and raised the roof,” Ford Wheeler of Compass Real Estate said.
“Floor-to-ceiling windows were installed to overlook the green space. In fact, you see that gorgeous view the moment you enter this Greenway Parks lease. With the large open floorplan, it’s an entertainer’s dream home.”
That’s true whether you are preparing a feast in the commercial-grade kitchen or relaxing on the attached covered porch with a wood-burning fireplace while your significant other grills burgers in the outdoor kitchen!
This is indeed such a rare find. I hope it’s still available for you because our single-family rental market is tight! It’s listed by Clifford Wheeler at Compass Real Estate for only $13,000 a month. If you can’t bear to leave, we have it on good authority, that you can also purchase this Greenway Parks beauty at 5314 Nakoma Drive beauty for $2.42 million!
