A Close Look At Houston Heights’ Historic Districts
"This was my first home sale and I was very fortunate to have had Yolanda, Jerico & the entire Houston Properties Team on my side. They understood that I wasn't fully familiar with the in’s and out's of the process and made sure to explain everything to me. I was kept informed at all times, and because I lived in a city other than where the property was located, they took care of everything. They made sure the house was show-ready, coordinated with my tenant, picked up paperwork from Homeowners Association, and sent all documents to me via email and utilized electronic signatures everywhere possible. I highly recommend the Houston Properties Team!” – Catherine Ortbalt
The Heights is one of Houston’s first master-planned communities. Many of today’s homeowners work hard to preserve the neighborhood’s old charm and traditional feel. This resulted in a diverse mix of renovated Victorian-themed houses and newly built single-family homes and townhomes.
The Heights has an enforced deed restriction to keep the neighborhood’s character and charm. Referred to as Houston Heights’ historic districts, these areas have residential construction limits to preserve their history and their common look and feel.
These Houston Heights historic districts are:
-
Houston Heights Historic District West
-
Houston Heights Historic District East
-
Houston Heights Historic District South
As you can see on the maps below, they are clustered around Heights Blvd, north of I-10, and below 20th.

- a “checks and balances” system; selling and buying a home in Houston is an intensely complex process
