Conroe: 188-acre Stillwater housing swings with porches

CONROE – Gracepoint Homes has broken ground on the 188-acre community Stillwater, which is near I-45 just south of FM 1488. When completed, the community will offer 381 single-family 55-, 65- and 80-foot properties.

There will also be 100-foot homesites in a gated section. Pricing is expected to start in the mid $400,000′s. Presales will start this summer. The community will have six sections.

“This range of homesites will appeal to the primary market of this area,” said Tom Cox. Jr., president of Gracepoint Homes. “Historically, the best-selling properties in The Woodlands are 65-foot and 80-foot homesites and 100-foot properties are in high demand in this area.”

The developer says the houses will “be reminiscent of South Carolina’s distinctive Lowcountry architecture, with expansive columned porches, some of which will be screened.”

The community itself will have lakes, walking paths, a park, a bridge and hiking and biking nearby in W.G. Jones State Forest.
