Somerset Green residents enjoy a lifestyle of convenience
Today’s home buyers lead active lives and often desire the ease of stress-free, low-maintenance homeownership. Whether traveling the world or escaping for weekend, Somerset Green offers residents the convenience of lock-and-leave living.
“We had been searching for a lock-and-leave home,” said former Bellaire residents Helen and Cal Leeke. “Many options inside the Loop were beautiful and had large windows, but they looked onto a neighbor’s roof or were in densely populated areas.”
Somerset Green is a luxury community located off I-10 and Old Katy Road, in proximity to downtown. Its location provides convenient access to the city's major thoroughfares and is convenient to popular destinations like the Heights, Washington Corridor, the Galleria and River Oaks.
Visitors drive through the guard-gated entry and find themselves surrounded by canals, lakes, manicured gardens, and gathering spaces. The community features amenities that include a swimming pool and entertainment space, walkable streetscapes a playgound and dog parks.
“We were impressed by Somerset Green’s Europeaninspired architecture, the pond, water features and the overall beauty of the neighborhood,” Helen said.
Developed by Hines, Somerset Green offers layouts with expansive living areas, hardwood floors, marble countertops, rooftop terraces and elevators. Featured builders include Coventry Homes, Darling Homes, Pelican Builders, Riverway Homes and Toll Brothers.
“We selected a design from Toll Brothers,” said Cal. “The buying and building processes were effortless, and the team made several excellent suggestions based on experience, which Helen and I appreciated.”
Helen and Cal’s home overlooks the community’s pond, which they describe as one of their favorite features. “It is peaceful to overlook the water and watch the wildlife.”
