Nottingham Forest Houston: Real Estate, Schools, Amenities & Memorial West Lifestyle

Nottingham Forest is one of the established residential neighborhoods that defines the wooded character of Memorial West Houston. Located in the 77079 area, it combines traditional single-family homes, mature trees, a long-running civic association and a large neighborhood recreation club. Buyers comparing Nottingham Forest Houston real estate often also look at Wilchester, Westchester and Nottingham because the neighborhoods share access to Memorial Drive, the Energy Corridor and west Houston amenities while offering different housing and school patterns.

Nottingham Forest Homes and 2026 Price Context

HAR’s 2025 neighborhood profile lists 931 single-family properties, a median home size of about 2,898 square feet, a median lot size of roughly 9,085 square feet and a median year built of 1967. The reported neighborhood value range was approximately $620,000 to $1.247 million, with a median market value around $920,000.

By late August 2026, active Nottingham Forest asking prices on HAR were generally around the upper-$800,000s to just over $1 million. Renovation level can make a major difference: two homes with similar square footage can trade very differently if one has updated mechanical systems, a redesigned interior, newer windows, improved drainage or a stronger lot position.

For a broader comparison, use the Memorial West neighborhood guide to see how Nottingham Forest pricing and home sizes compare with Yorkshire, Wilchester and Memorial Bend.

The Nottingham Forest Club and Neighborhood Lifestyle

The Nottingham Forest Club is a significant part of the community’s identity. The official club site describes a 10.5-acre wooded property with a clubhouse, swimming facilities, five lighted outdoor tennis courts, pickleball, basketball and park space. The club also hosts community programming and recreation throughout the year.

That gives Nottingham Forest a different lifestyle from neighborhoods that rely more heavily on public parks or outside recreation facilities. Buyers who want direct neighborhood amenities may find that distinction important when comparing Nottingham Forest with nearby communities.

If your priority is trail access rather than a large private neighborhood club, compare Nottingham Forest with Westchester Houston and Wilchester Houston, both of which have strong connections to the Terry Hershey Park/Buffalo Bayou corridor.

When evaluating a Nottingham Forest home, look beyond bedroom count and square footage. Age of roof and HVAC systems, electrical and plumbing updates, drainage, prior water events, foundation history, window replacement, renovation quality and lot placement can all materially affect value.
