New homes in master-planned communities are in demand, offering a lifestyle centered around amenities and connection. These neighborhoods are strategically developed near workplaces, retail shops, great schools, and recreation. They foster a sense of togetherness and an active lifestyle for people of all ages. Each year, the top master-planned communities in the US are ranked, and we are excited to announce that two of our Houston-area communities topped the charts! The #1 spot for all of Texas was the sunny community of Sunterra. And, the oasis of Marvida captured fourth!
Sunterra
Sunterra, located in the flourishing city of Katy, Texas, brings the resort lifestyle to life with its spectacular Crystal Lagoon and the relaxing Lazy River. Residents can stroll along a white sand beach and unwind in the turquoise waters, perfect for swimming, kayaking, and paddleboarding. Connect with friends and neighbors at The Retreat, a clubhouse with resident lounge, yoga studio, fitness center, and KidZone. Children can enjoy playscapes and sports areas, while parents rest easy knowing their kids attend one of the top school districts in the Houston area. Future residents can choose from one of our expertly designed quick move-in homes or build their dream home with a variety of floor plans featuring open-concept living, gourmet kitchens, and luxurious primary bedroom suites.
Marvida
Marvida, located in Cypress, Texas rounds offers premium amenities, like a fabulous clubhouse for neighborhood gatherings, a sparkling community pool with a winding lazy river, and more. The neighborhood is an oasis where residents can not only enjoy a roster of resort-style amenities within the community but also the splash pads, sports courts, and parks of three connected sister communities. Ideally located for easy commutes, Marvida makes the commute to Katy, The Energy Corridor, and Downtown Houston a breeze!
