Strategically located next to Galveston Island and approximately one hour south of Houston, this is the Best Kept Secret on the Texas Gulf Coast and soon to be the best-kept opportunity.
New homes offer significant advantages, especially in coastal areas where the harsh marine environment can lead to substantial degradation and maintenance challenges. Building standards on the Gulf Coast have continued to evolve to address these challenges. A notable example occurred in 2010 – following Hurricane Ike – which caused sweeping changes to the standards governing building pilings.
Before 2010, contractors typically installed 10-inch square pilings as standard practice. Today, most substantial coastal homes require 12-inch square pilings—structures that provide nearly twice the tensile strength of their predecessors, offering significantly improved resistance to storm forces.
