Kings Park

Larger homes, a mature setting and limited availability, north of 82nd Street around Quaker.

Living in Kings Park

Kings Park in Lubbock is a smaller, more distinctive pocket of southwest Lubbock. Larger homes, mature landscaping and limited turnover make it a different market from the neighborhoods around it.

Many homes are roughly 3,000 to 6,000 square feet, with brick or stone exteriors on substantial lots. Most date from the 1980s and 1990s, with some newer custom homes added later, so individual properties vary considerably in age and architectural style.

Very few homes change hands here in a typical year. That scarcity is the defining feature of Kings Park, for buyers and sellers alike.

Where Kings Park is

Kings Park sits roughly between 74th and 82nd Streets, from Quaker Avenue toward Memphis Avenue. Locals describe it as "north of 82nd around Quaker." Streets such as 74th, 75th Street and 75th Place, 77th and Norfolk Avenue run through it.

Kingsgate Center, at 82nd and Quaker, puts shopping and dining close by, and it's the landmark relocating buyers recognize first. Clifford Andrews Park and Bill & Ann Miller Park are nearby.

How I help buyers and sellers in Kings Park

With so few sales, pricing a Kings Park home takes judgment, and so does buying one. A sale two streets away may not be truly comparable. My background in architecture, civil design and subdivision planning helps me account for what matters: size, condition, lot, construction and the quality of any renovation.

For buyers, a large home is also a large commitment. I'll help you look at utilities, roof, heating and cooling capacity, insurance, landscaping and long-term maintenance alongside the price, so the home fits your budget after closing too.

For sellers, the job is to sell the combination of location, lot, size and mature character. Your listing gets professional photography, video and drone shots where they help, a property website, paid social media ads, agent email, neighbor mailers and open houses.

Schools buyers ask about

Kings Park is within Lubbock ISD. Buyers commonly ask about Honey Elementary, Evans Middle School and Monterey High School. Southcrest Christian School is also nearby and may come up in relocation conversations. Campus assignment should be confirmed for each address with Lubbock ISD.

Kings Park and Kings Gate: close, but different

Kings Park sits immediately north of Kings Gate, and the two share the 82nd and Quaker corridor. The difference is scarcity. Kings Gate has a steady resale market with a broad range of homes. Kings Park is a small enclave of larger homes where few come up for sale, which helps explain why a Kings Park home can command considerably more even though the neighborhoods are close.

At the upper end of the market, buyers also compare Kings Park with Lakeridge, Orchard Park, Vintage Township, newer south Lubbock developments and custom construction. What Kings Park offers is its combination of location, lot, size and mature setting.

What Kings Park sellers should know

The biggest concern is the shortage of comparable sales. When only a handful of homes sell in a year, market value comes from careful judgment, not a spreadsheet. I'll show you the evidence I used and the reasoning behind each adjustment.

Price per square foot can mislead here. A remodeled 3,200-square-foot home shouldn't be valued the same way as an original-condition 4,500-square-foot home only because both are in Kings Park. Buyers at this level also expect kitchens, bathrooms, lighting and flooring to feel current, and they weigh the carrying costs of a large home against the price.
