Historic Real Estate is preparing waterfront property in League City for 35 single-family home sites and four “family compounds” large enough to accommodate multiple buildings and as many as three boats.
Two homes are already under construction in the gated boating village called The Peninsula Clear Lake.
Allegro Builders and Tuscany Estate Homes will build all of the houses, which will start at $1 million and range from 3,400 to 8,500 square feet.
Designed by Robert Dame, the homes will have Tuscan, Mediterranean and Spanish Revival architectural styles.
The project is being built in League City along 4,400 feet of shoreline on the south side of Clear Lake along Davis Road.
It looks across the lake to Johnson Space Center and across Clear Creek to a nature preserve and bird sanctuary.
The development was planned by Richard Browne, principal of Historic Real Estate, whose background includes helping plan The Woodlands.
Part of the developers’ motivation for the project was a lack of single-family waterfront home sites on Clear Lake.
“This is a very rare development opportunity,” Browne said.
Each home will have an optional private boat dock or boathouse for pleasure
vessels.
Boats will have direct channel access to Clear Lake, Galveston Bay and the Gulf of Mexico.
Meanwhile, Historic Real Estate is planning WaterLights District, an office, restaurant, retail and residential development planned
along Texas 288 just
south of Beltway 8.
Arguably the most compelling part of the development is a Presidential Park that will have a collection of busts, each at least 18 feet tall, of presidents from George Washington to George W. Bush. The country’s next leader will be added.
