A lush 11,400-acre master planned new home community just northwest of Houston, where flocks of waterfowl glide across natural lakes, Bridgeland is known for its harmonic blending of nature, dwellings, lifestyle and enterprise and offers a wealth of home choices and amenities among its more than 21,000 home sites.
Located in Cypress, Texas along the eastern boundary of the Katy Prairie and traversed by a portion of the Cypress Creek riparian corridor, it will have over 3,000 acres dedicated to lakes, trails, parks, open space, and other amenities, many that have already become a focal point of life in Bridgeland. Its commitment to conservation and recreation; regional transportation connectivity and access; and award-winning schools in the Cypress Fairbanks ISD, has earned Bridgeland the title of #1 master-planned community in the nation by the National Association of Home Builders.
A prestigious team of home builders have already established several communities within Bridgeland’s Lakeland Village, the first of four to be developed. Those include The Shores, First Bend, The Cove and two neighborhoods within the community of Water Haven. There is also a convenient model home park with beautifully decorated homes to tour as well as a custom home enclave showcasing designs in The Reserve at First Bend.
Lakeland’s Activity Center covers more than six acres and offers a resort-style swimming complex, a 6,000-square-foot Community Center with fitness room, two lighted tennis courts and two shaded playgrounds. An on-site full-time activities director oversees a diverse events calendar, from fitness classes to cooking demonstrations. Bridgeland residents can enjoy
biking, fishing, and non-motorized boating without purchasing any equipment, instead simply checking it out and enjoying.
Demonstrating a laudable commitment to education, Bridgeland has developed a comprehensive plan that includes sites for preschools, private
schools, schools for special needs students, and multiple public school locations, as well as satellite college campuses and continuing adult education classes, all within community borders. Bridgeland has also set up several college endowments specifically for Bridgeland students!
The original land planners’ guiding principles, and the framework for this harmonic blending of nature, dwellings, lifestyle and enterprise, were
to protect and enhance the environment; build a sustainable community; inspire and facilitate lifelong learning and education; create a destination of special places and experiences; instill a sense of community; and provide
aesthetic design and high quality construction. Those who live in Bridgeland can attest that each of these goals has been met.
