HOMES, COMMUNITIES
Beachtown offers a respite from the busy city life.
With the impact that COVID-19 has had on the society, many are seeking healthier and safer environments to call home.
A hidden oasis located on the eastern tip of Galveston Island, Beachtown may just be that safe haven.
Located south of Houston, visitors can take I-45 south and make no turns until they arrive at this 260acre development, which offers a respite from the city life. With more than 1 mile of non-driving and naturally growing beach and miles of lagoon-front, Beachtown is also nestled in an 800-acre nature preserve. Ocean lovers are at arm’s length from dipping in the sea, and both pedestrians and cyclists can enjoy a breath of fresh air.
Planned by the creators of Florida’s Seaside and Rosemary developments, Beachtown is a walkable sanctuary that fosters a sense of community. While the area may feel secluded, it is less than 2 miles away from a major university hospital (UTMB), the oldest opera house in Texas, and Galveston’s charming Historic District.
With Beachtown’s concierge service, the ease of the lock-and-leave lifestyle enables residents to come and go as they please. From small cottages to estate homes, Beachtown offers a wide selection of dwellings to suit different people’s needs. The newest addition includes the Sunset Townhomes, priced in the $700,000s. The three-bedroom, three-bath, upside-down townhomes offer breathtaking views. Whether it’s the sunrise over the Gulf of Mexico or the sun setting beyond the nature preserve in Galveston Bay, residents are in for a treat.
Beachtown also is built to IBHS Fortified construction standards, resisting winds up to 150 mph.
“We purchased our Beachtown home last summer as a weekend getaway. The house has truly become our family retreat home. With a restaurant we can walk to, a beautiful walkover to a wide, sandy beach, and with what can only be described as concierge service for home maintenance, Beachtown living is easy, simple, and very relaxing,” said Bridgette and Tom Tomlinson, Beachtown homeowners.
