Trendmaker will build GHBA Benefit home in Meridiana
Trendmaker Homes announced it is constructing the F501C Plan with the fourth-bedroom option for the 2016 Greater Houston Builders Association fundraiser, the Benefit Homes Project, on a homesite in Meridiana master-planned community. Trendmaker is donating construction management and Meridiana’s developer, Rise Communities, is donating the homesite.
Each year two homes are built for the Benefit Homes Project with donated land, materials and services by GHBA members. The homes offer a variety of popular features and amenities on the market today. They are sold at market value and the majority of the proceeds benefit Texas Children’s Cancer Center, the Alzheimer’s Association and HomeAid Houston. Since the fundraiser began 36 years ago, more than $9.5 million has been raised.
“HomeAid Houston, Texas Children’s Hospital and the Alzheimer’s Association of Southeast Texas are such wonderful and deserving causes,” said Trendmaker president Will Holder. “We are happy to be a part of this year’s Benefit Homes Project.”
For 45 years, Trendmaker Homes has been a wellknown name in Houston’s new home market.
“Trendmaker’s reputation ensures the Benefit Homes Project will be a success,” said Lisa Pepitone, GHBA project liaison. “The company has always put an emphasis on excellence. They create homes that are both beautiful and functional, combining high-end finishes. This is indeed an exciting year for the Benefit Homes Project.”
Meridiana, located south of the Texas Medical Cen- ter off Texas 288 and Texas 6, is a new 2,700-acre community that will be accessible by the new Meridiana Parkway (now County Road 56), currently under construction, creating a commuting route heading north to the Texas Medical Center or south to Dow Chemical, BASF and other Brazoria County workplaces.
In addition to luxury homes by Houston’s home builders, Meridiana MPC will offer a waterfront Amenity Village where residents can enjoy a resort-style family pool with cabanas, cafe, kids’ splash pad, fitness center with on-site personal trainers and outdoor amphitheater.
A second home was built for the 2016 Benefit Homes Project by Castletree Homes and was recently sold. The home was built in the new community of Miramesa near U.S. 290 and Fry Road. The community developer, Land Tejas Cos., donated the homesite.
