Kingwood, Texas.
Kingwood is a master planned community north on Highway 59. It is in the Humble
school district and is marketed as "The Livable Forest". With a
population of over 40,000. it's still a beautiful natural setting
because of the abundance of green areas which buffer the homes from
the streets and each other. Miles of jogging and biking trails and
an elementary school in every village has made Kingwood a great
family neighborhood for over 20 years now. Homes are available from
the $80,000's to around $1 million. New homes start in the
$100,000's and go up. 20 years ago Kingwood was way out of town with
the nearest mall probably 15 miles away. Today there is plenty of
shopping and great restaurants right in Kingwood. The nearest mall
is less than 10 minutes away and the Woodlands mall is a short drive
cross Montgomery County and well worth it. The airport if only about
15 minutes which makes this a great home for business travelers.
Country properties start pretty quick once you get past Kingwood so
there are plenty of places to board horses. Lake Houston is
accessible from Kingwood and Lake Livingston is a short drive. The
development has two country clubs with golf courses plus one public
course and several others within 20 minutes. Houston is truly a
golfers paradise. Lots are generally 1/2 acre for estate homes but
much smaller in general. One pre-Kingwood village called Forest Cove
has larger lots and horses are allowed but the homes are quite old.
Many are updated so if a lot of space between neighbors is your
dream, its worth a look. The kids in Forest Cove still go to
Kingwood schools. The drive to downtown from Kingwood is 25 minutes
with no traffic, about 40 in rush hour. It is also a good choice for
executives working on the east side of Houston and Channelview too.
