Lakefront properties in a prime location in Sugar Land

Tucked away just south of the Sugar Land Town Square, Avalon allows potential homebuyers to purchase a lakefront property just 26 miles southeast of Houston. Developed between 1999 and 2005, the neighborhood features a community association, which oversees many shared amenities, including a community pool and hosts a handful of events. Avalon is located just south of most of the hot spots in Sugar Land and is about a 30-minute drive into Houston for work or play. “Everyone wants to live in Avalon,” says Kristen Manz, a Realtor and team lead of the Greater Houston Living Team at EXP Realty. “The homes are newer compared to the rest of the area and are very well built and well known throughout the area.”

Avalon's lakefront homes offer serene views, creating a peaceful residential enclave.

Custom-built properties in a sought-after neighborhood

On the banks of multiple lakes, homes sit on compact well, manicured lots, most featuring stunning water views. Neighborhood streets are lined with sidewalks shaded by scattered trees in front yards. While there is a chance to purchase townhouses, most home inventory includes brick Craftsman and Colonial Revivals to larger estate homes with Mediterranean touches. Buyers can find a townhouse for around $500,000, while the price of a Colonial Revival rises to nearly $700,000. Some larger estate homes also can eclipse the $1 million mark. “The market is hot because it's a well-known neighborhood. Most of the homes in the area are custom or semi-custom built with top-line finishing,” Manz says. Avalon’s CAP Index Crime Score is a 1-out-of-10 across the index’s metrics, which is lower than the national average.

Avalon boasts a range of home styles, from elegant single-family houses to spacious estates.

Community events close to home and at the square

While the Avalon Community Association's primary responsibilities are the upkeep of the shared amenities and beautification of the neighborhood, it does put on community events. One of its largest events is the Fourth of July Parade, where local children decorate their bikes in the best combination of red, white and blue and stroll through the streets. A little farther from home, The Sugar Land Towne Square has events throughout the year, like the Music on the Square concert series, Movies on the Square and even smaller events like Yoga and Zumba on the Square.

Minutes from Sugar Land Town Square and First Colony Mall

Avalon is primarily residential but only a few miles from the Sugar Land Town Square, First Colony Mall and other nearby essential amenities. Less than 5 miles away is the Sugar Land Town Square, which provides multiple boutiques, like Loft and House of Blooms and is a hot restaurant spot. Within the square, locals can dine on Tex-Mex at Escalante’s, try the southern cuisine at State Fare or the Asian fusion spot Japanerios with sushi and Latin dishes. “Our restaurant selection represents the diversity of the area. We respect our cultural differences and celebrate our human similarities in Fort Bend County,” Manz says. More retail can be found at First Colony Mall, which has upscale fashion stores like Lululemon, and the latest technology at the Apple Store. The mall puts on local events and has multiple restaurants.
