Idylwood, Houston

Idylwood is a historic neighborhood in the southeastern part of the I-610 loop in Houston, Texas.

Bill England, a redeveloper in the East End area, stated in 2004 that Idylwood appealed to buyers who are priced out of houses located in the cities of Bellaire and West University Place.

The neighborhood is bounded by the Brays Bayou, the Wortham Golf Course, and the Villa de Matel, a Roman Catholic convent and basilica.

"[2] Anjali Athavaley of the Houston Chronicle said that flooding is not a significant problem for Idylwood residents.

In 2001 Tropical Storm Allison affected some houses located in proximity to North MacGregor Way.
