Northpointe offers the best of both Tomball and The Woodlands
Neighboring the vast farmland on the outskirts of Houston is Northpointe — a large residential community with subdivisions clad with ponds and neighborhood parks. Sitting 30 miles northwest of downtown, Northpointe has become a popular destination for those wanting proximity to nearby attractions without the accompanying hustle and bustle of the big city. "People like Northpointe because it's sandwiched in between Tomball and The Woodlands, so the location of it is kind of cool," says local Realtor Natasha Tessier of eXp Realty, who was born and raised in the area and runs a YouTube channel about Houston real estate called "Living In Houston Texas." "The Woodlands has restaurants, it has your Nordstrom, your Lululemon. You don't have any of that in Tomball, so Northpointe kind of sits in between the two, which is nice."
Newer single-family homes are plentiful in Northpointe
Northpointe primarily contains master-planned communities that offer newer single-family homes with traditional brick architecture constructed within the last 20 years. A larger property with five bedrooms can price between $300,000 and $600,000 while a smaller ranch-style home under 2,000 square feet will often range from $200,000 to $400,000. Northpointe's housing market is relatively competitive with some homes selling within three or four weeks.
Northpointe is known for its friendly neighbors and local community events.
