Pockets
of newly built mansions, like the sixbedroom modern French villa in the East
Shore subdivision, on the market now for $5.5 million, are sprouting up a stone's
throw from mixed-use developments with desirable amenities. There's the new
Hughes Landing complex, boasting resort-inspired apartments and a huge Whole
Foods. Across the lake, Ziegler Cooper's Research Forest Lakeside is a
10-building development with sleek offices and casual-cool-restaurants. And the
Howard Hughes Corp.'s 23-story Treviso luxury condo tower, preselling now, will
soon rise in the central Waterway district, near the Woodlands Pavilion.
Treviso,
named after a medieval Italian town north of Venice, is the second condominium
project in The Woodlands. Since The Howard Hughes Corp. finished the Waterway
Lofts, a 56-unit condominium midrise, in 2006, the developer has fielded many
calls from people interested in more condominiums in The Woodlands, Doyle said.
Many
of the prospective condo buyers are empty nesters who are looking to downsize
from a larger home in The Woodlands but want to stay near friends and family in
the master-planned community, Doyle said. Some of the buyers are single working
professionals who want a short commute to work inside The Woodlands and
hassle-free living near The Woodlands Town Center, Waterway Square Plaza and
The Woodlands Waterway, he added. “There’s now an interest and
acceptance of high-rise living,” Doyle said. “That’s the trend. People want urban
mixed-use, walkable centers that are close to all the activity.”
Treviso
will feature one- to three-bedroom condominium units with a study and two-and-a-half
bathrooms, averaging 1,750 square feet. The units, which start at $650,000,
will feature quartz countertops, German Miele appliances and wine chiller,
lacquer-finished cabinets, hardwood floors and 10- to 12-foot ceilings with
expansive glass windows overlooking The Woodlands.
The top two stories will feature
penthouses, which have seen the most demand so far, Doyle said. Customers will
have the option to customize the floor plans and upgrade the materials,
finishes and appliances inside the penthouse units, he added.
Treviso’s common-area amenities
include a resident clubroom with a lounge and demonstration kitchen, private
dining area, a fitness center, a resort-style pool with cabanas and a sun shelf
and an outdoor grill and fire pit. The
Howard Hughes Corp. also is
considering 24-hour concierge service and security, Doyle said. There will be
space on the ground floor for two restaurants, he added.
The glass, brick and stone-base
tower, designed by Atlanta-based The
Preston Partnership LLC, will feature contemporary and clean design, evocative
of Europe, Doyle said. The Texas division of Alabama-based Hoar Construction will be the general contractor, and
Houston-based Sudhoff Cos. is marketing and selling the units.
The
Howard Hughes Corp. plans to begin construction before the end of this
year— hopefully in October after about half of the units are sold, Doyle said.
The developer is targeting an opening date sometime in the first quarter of
2017, he added.
Meanwhile,
the health care industry has set out to give energy a run for its money. Just
as Exxon Mobil opens its 385-acre campus, hospitals including Memorial Hermann,
Texas Children's and St. Luke's have invested a total of $850 million in new or
renovated facilities in The Woodlands.
